Charles Blé Goudé asked President Ouattara to bring together the main political parties of Cote d'Ivoire to try to find a way out of the tense situation that prevails ten months before the presidential election. For opposition parties, this is necessary. For power, less.
If Charles Blé Goudé condemned a political decision on the part of the Ivorian government, the former "general of the street" begged Alassane Ouattara to bring together all the actors of the post-electoral crisis.
At Henri Konan Bédié's PDCI, we approve of this idea. For Maurice Kakou Guikahué, the executive secretary of the party “ today, the tension is due to the lack of dialogue. We cannot be in the brink of force, and we must recognize that the opposition exists ”.
Among the burning files, the constitution of the independent electoral commission that the opposition does not recognize within a year of the presidential election .
And at Laurent Gbagbo's FPI, it is important to discuss " the confiscation of property and the restitution of land in the west " while condemning an executive " who responds with violence and stalking opponents, " says Franck Anderson Kouassi.
But on the side of power, an RHDP executive confides that Charles Blé Goudé " is not in a strong position to reach out to Alassane Ouattara ", while rejecting the idea of an instrumentalization of justice. As for the rest of the opposition, he considers that they " do not want to discuss and must give up the policy of the empty chair ".
