Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Thank you.
If I can be so bold as to compare my assessment with yours--because after all, you are the experts, but I lived three years in the region and have been to Mali very often--indeed, it doesn't look like a conflict based on religion. It's rather a conflict where various groups, including religious groups, try to take advantage of the situation for their own purposes.
Speaking of groups, what is the situation regarding Tuaregs coming from Libya, who left Libya in the recent months, and are now in the north of Mali?
