Okay.
We all know by now that the situation in the Malian conflict is not only military, but it's much more a political, long-term process that needs to bring different actors to dialogue, to find a consensus, and to build the states' capacities in these isolated areas that have been forgotten over the past years.
There are some success stories, for example, the fact that the governments have shown signs of willingness to negotiate with one of the Tuareg rebel groups, which is the MNLA. There are also some other signs that they want to have elections by the end of July. There could be some other examples that show the political process could be perceived as moving forward. But I think we need to maintain pressure on the authorities, because we also see some antagonism within the political elites. Not all political forces agree with the recent statement from the presidents and the prime minister. It doesn't mean that everybody agrees on the potential of negotiations with the MNLA.
So I would say if we have to go in that direction, because there is no other way to get out of this crisis right now, pressure must be maintained to make sure they are participating as authorities in this planning process, and that they are also incited to move forward, so we not only have a political process on paper, but also something concrete on the ground.
