| #1 February 11, 2020: BAMAKO, Mali (AP) — Malian President Ibrahim Boubacar Keita confirmed his government is in contact with al-Qaida-linked extremist leaders as Mali faces some of the worst violence since its crisis began in 2012... At an African Union summit in Ethiopia, Keita confirmed that Mali’s military would be returning to the northern rebel stronghold town of Kidal, where it has not had a presence in six years. Keita told Radio France Internationale and France 24 that he had a duty “to do everything possible so that, by one means or another, we can achieve some sort of appeasement.” |
