II. EVOLUTION OF THE POLITICAL AND SECURITY SITUATION IN MALI AND IN THE SAHEL

a) Political situation in Mali

  1. Mali has henceforth emerged fully from the situation of breach of Constitutional legality in which it was plunged following the coup d’Etat of 22 March 2012. The successful organization of the Presidential and Legislative elections in 2013 made it possible to establish new institutions. Parallel to the process of consolidating the democratic institutions, the implementation of the Ouagadougou Agreement of 18 June 2013 is being pursued despite some challenges. On 26 April 2014, President Ibrahima Boubacar Keita appointed Mr. Modibo Keita, former Prime Minister, as the High Representative to the Inclusive Talks provided for under the Ouagadougou Agreement. He immediately initiated consultations with the representatives of the international community in Mali as well as with the Parties to the Talks, particularly the armed groups.
