Description
Following the arrest of Ivorian soldiers at Mali's Bamako airport, accused of being "mercenaries" by the Malian authorities, Dr Aly Tounkara, Executive Director of the Centre for Security and Strategic Studies in the Sahel and political analyst reflects on the situation. "According to the first factual elements given by the Malian state, the idea of mercenarism is tenable," he explains, although he added that societal aspects and political agendas could also be behind the incident.
