Voici quelques questions que je me pose à l'entrée de cette année 2011...
- La Côte d'Ivoire va-t-elle enfin sortir de plus de quinze ans d'instabilité politique et d'affrontements ? La meilleure analyse est sans doute celle de Tiken Jah Fakoly dans "Ma Côte d'Ivoire" .
- La Belgique aura-t-elle un gouvernement d'ici la fin de l'année ? Rien n'est moins sûr plus de 200 days after the election. The country still awaits the formation of a government. The negotiations are ongoing since June. As in 2007 , regionally-based parties do not agree. In any case, there is one thing that the Belgians have not lost is the sense of humor and self-deprecating humor as evidenced by this "Belge Side Story"
- The Republican majority in the House of Representatives in the U.S. , inducted this week, she will succeed in agreeing with the Democratic majority in the Senate and with President Obama? Nothing is less certain. The session began with the full ead of the Constitution and its 27 amendments . The Republican majority has put the agenda aside from the health reform so laboriously obtained by Obama.
- The Sudan exist there again next month? A self-determination referendum in the south to take place next week. a civil war pitted the central government (dominated by mainly Muslim northerners) south (mostly animist and Christian) from 1983 to 2005. The score seemed to settle but still gained some thorny issues like oil. The majority of the oil produced by the country in the South but is exported by pipeline through the North to rejoin the Red Sea at Port Sudan. This could complicate relations between North and South, but why not also require them to deal with each other.
- The Greece and Turkey will they be separated by a wall three meters high? Their land border poses less of a problem that the delimitation of maritime areas (EEZ) of the two countries, but Greece is seriously looking to build a wall to prevent migrants from entering the Schengen Area and the European Union. The place has indeed become one of the first crossing points for illegal immigrants from the Middle East, Asia and even Africa . Another problem
- border perspective between Israel and Lebanon and another question: After fighting on land, Israel and Lebanon will they clash at sea? A wide oil and gas field has indeed was discovered in the Mediterranean . It is largely in the Exclusive Economic Zone of Israel but to the extent that there is no agreement with Lebanon on the delimitation of the EEZ, a portion of the deposit is also claimed by the latter.
- The Hungary Will it stifle freedom of expression ? You probably think I'm exaggerating, but the recent law, passed at the instigation of Prime Minister Viktor Orban's right, seriously calls into question the freedom of expression by placing more stringent conditions to the press and media. Even the European commission would worried.
What is certain is that I wish you all, loyal users, an excellent year 2011. My best wishes!
