Six ministers arrived yesterday Monday in Kidal in northern Mali, still in the hands of the ex-rebellion

The delegation will stay there for two days to talk about development and the return of the State.

This is the first visit to Kidal by a Malian ministerial delegation since the coup of August 18.

This locality has been the stronghold of the former rebellion for more than eight years, recalls Maliweb, despite the signing of a peace agreement whose application is sluggish on the ground. 

This strong presence of the government in Kidal is an illustration of the will of the powers of the Transition to reach levels not yet crossed in the much-announced return of the state administration to this area

All things that go through a resolution of the blockages weighing on the reconstituted army, a problem that will be discussed during this visit of members of the government in Adrar. 

Kidal: the Transition is

This ministerial visit is "a reason for hope," says the Guinean site.

It symbolizes the will of those responsible for the transition to tackle the sensitive issue of the return of the State to this strategic city in northern Mali, under rebel occupation for almost 8 years.

However, on the side of the CMA also, we are rather willing to try the relaxation, after having used firmness during all these last years.

 it is not all about wanting to take charge of the issue of the partition of the country.

We must also have the legitimacy and above all have the time to get there.

In fact, does a transitional government with an 18-month mandate have the time to deal with such a complex issue?

it will undoubtedly take more than a simple government expedition to snatch Kidal from the hands of the ex-rebellion, which clings to it like a political lifeline.

The policy of small steps in the direction of northern Mali is therefore continuing, but very smart who can say when this process, particularly long and painful, will come to an end

Because even if the multiple movements of the Tuareg rebellion seem to have given up their desire for independence, they do not despair of maintaining a stranglehold, even a certain autonomy over this part of the territory.

They are all the more convinced of this since the Malian army, which had been driven from Kidal in 2012, clearly does not have the means to dislodge them

 Is Joseph Kabila doomed to fall into the opposition?

Faced with the dismemberment of his majority and the defection of the executives of his coalition, the former president, withdrawn in Katanga for a month, is trying to organize the response. 

Sylvestre Ilunga is on an ejection seat, points Jeune Afrique.

This Kabila faithful is expected this Tuesday in front of Parliament to respond to a motion of censure signed by more than 300 deputies.

Clearly, he is threatened with dismissal.

 Sunday

Sylvestre Ilunga came to consult Joseph Kabila in Lubumbashi, in order to find a way out of the motion of censure that targets him.

Two options are available to the latter

either return the apron to avoid the

as maintained by some mover, or

arguing that the age office of the National Assembly has no + quality to deal with this matter +, as the pro-Kabila FCC claims.
