1282 issue: week ending 17 March 2023

Welcome to this week-in-review episode, for the period ending 10 March 2023, where we look at some of the key events affecting the geopolitics of North Africa and the Sahel. Your host is Arezki Daoud, principal analyst at MEA Risk LLC and editor of The North Africa Journal. In the Sahel, the general state of insecurity, as well as the atmosphere of transition due to the take over of power by military juntas, have had a dominant play in the Sahelian context. In North Africa, the dominant story may very well be Tunisia, with the president there increasing his control of the government, expanding assaults on human rights and making mistakes that could cost Tunisia billions in lost loan opportunities.
