The dialogue is very realistic because almost everyone in the north, even the Touareg, are with the Malian government. We're talking here about separatists. These people only represent themselves. But I want to talk about these people whose hands are stained with blood, people who have slit the throats of our soldiers, people whose files we've sent to the International Criminal Court. There cannot be a dialogue with those people until the International Criminal Court renders a decision in their case. But there is a dialogue with the majority of Touareg who remain and who consider themselves Malian, who are in the army and who are heads of all these Mali institutions. In fact, they help the dialogue.
The other day, I was very happy to hear the speech of the Nigerian president and his minister of foreign affairs on France Inter. They said that the MNLA was in no way representative of all Touareg, not even the Touareg of the north. I don't know how, but I will try to find the recording in Mali and send it to you one day.
The MNLA Touareg, the separatists, are a small minority of Touareg. The Mali government said that it was going to speak with those people if they did anything. Mali is willing to speak with the separatists. If we want to be democratic, we need to take into account everyone's point of view. A real democracy should not just make do with its own point of view. All points of view are welcome when we come to the table.
