Yesterday @EmmanuelMacron and @sanchezcastejon signed a Friendship Treaty between 🇫🇷 and 🇪🇸

The 🇫🇷 President will then host 🇩🇪 @Bundeskanzler Scholz on Sunday, before welcoming 🇬🇧 PM @RishiSunak on March 10th

What is the strategic significance of this busy bilateral agenda?🧵 Image
Each of these summits has its own bilateral rationale. But they are also illustrative of 🇫🇷 multilayered approach of collective security alongside #NATO and the🇪🇺 #EU, and of President Macron’s willingness to reconnect the dots between main Western Europe capitals. 2/16
With Spain, the Friendship Treaty raises the relation to the highest level, on par with 🇩🇪 and 🇮🇹. It confirms 🇪🇸 centrality, as it hosted the last NATO Summit, will chair the next EU Council and host the third European Political Community #EPC summit in the second half of 2023

18/08/2020: the Conseil Nationale pour le Salut de Peuple #CNSP forces president #IBK to step down as president. The months before saw thousands of Malians demonstrating against the regime IBK on the streets of #Bamako 2/
In the weeks after the #coup the military junta around Assimi #Goita received good will from international partners, while being celebrated by the Malian population. The junta reassured that they only aimed for the removal of IBK and would honour all international arrangements 3/

🇫🇷 "Ces cinq dernières années ont vu une saisissante mise en lumière de deux phénomènes qui sont au cœur de la mission des armées : la dangerosité du monde et celle du quotidien."

Retour sur l'audition à huit clos du @CEMA_FR qui s'est déroulée le 16 février dernier. #THREAD 👇
"Dans ce contexte de profonde incertitude et de menace protéiforme, les armées doivent, plus que jamais, être agiles et réactives."
"L’ambition de gagner la guerre avant la guerre me semble toujours plus pertinente, même si je suis bien conscient que le chemin à parcourir, seuls et avec nos alliés, est encore long – il exigera beaucoup d’efforts de nos armées ainsi que de coordination avec nos partenaires."

We are imminently expecting a press conference with French President Macron and EU Council President Michel announcing a French pullout from #Mali.

The big question: will the EU #Takuba mission end as well? How will EU engagement continue? We're waiting for the details.
The #Mali pullout announcement is coming just hours before the start of the #EUAfrica Summit in Brussels.

Mali is not on the agenda, but given this morning's dramatic announcement, the implications of this withdrawal will certainly be discussed on the sidelines. #EUAUsummit
The press conference has just begun. Macron is taking quite a while to get to the actual withdrawal announcement. Image

1/ Histoire d'un imbroglio : Hier, les autorités maliennes ont exigé le retrait immédiat du contingent danois de la force #Takuba, qui selon eux serait entré au #Mali sans "consentement" et sans "protocole additionnel" qui aurait dû mener à un accord bilatéral. Image
2/ Le ministère des Affaires étrangères danois répond en développant le long calendrier diplomatique des échanges et accords successifs quant au déploiement de ce contingent. La contribution danoise à #Takuba aurait été approuvée par le gouv d'IBK et celui de transition. ImageImageImage
3/ Autre élément attestant la position danoise, la délivrance d'autorisations de survol pour le déploiement du contingent, accordées par le ministère malien de la Défense et le ministère des Transports. Les permis couvrent la période allant du 16 au 26 janvier 2022.

Met Jamil Arouad, de nieuwe kabinetschef op het Ministerie van Defensie die de signatuur van de #Moslimbroederschap heeft, worden er grondige koerswijzigingen doorgevoerd.
Vooral bij de inlichtingendienst van het leger.
#BelgischLeger #Infiltratie
De nieuwe koers zal eenzijdig focussen op Vlaams extremisme als uitsluitingsgrond, terwijl zij #moslimextremisme zal minimaliseren en uit de wind zetten.
Dit zal toelaten dat islamisten gemakkelijk de weg naar het leger vinden en er carrière kunnen maken.

Omdat de #Moslimbroederschap zeer geheimhoudend opereert in Europa, is het heel moeilijk om hun #wakil (agenten) te herkennen. Maar hun netwerk in de #EU is enorm groot!
Je herkent hen via organisaties en eensgezinde standpunten over de partijgrenzen heen.

The #G5Sahel summit had a revealing media echo in some major German news outlets that tell you quite a bit about the problems of #Germany's public discourse on the #Sahel and its #stabilization engagement in general. A thread. 1/14
First of all, there is little attention. Neither of the two major German public broadcasters ARD & ZDF mentioned the summit in their flagship programmes @tagesschau and @heutejournal.
(there was a good text by @dunjasadaqi on Tagesschau's website) 2/14 tagesschau.de/ausland/afrika…
The public radio station @DLF had a short news item. It noted French calls for "fairer burden-sharing" in the military mission and then noted: "Germany is also active there. But the Bundeswehr does not participate in military missions." 3/14
