France against the danger of Boko Haram

The real threat that jihadists of Boko Haram, if you continue to advance, can come together with the militias of the Islamic State in action in Libya, is a danger, that still seems undervalued by Western countries, except France. Such a scenario would put under the control of a portion of fundamentalism territorial Africa too extensive and too close to Europe, allowing you to create a state entity parallel difficult to eradicate and which give way to threats to the West. Paris has tried to raise awareness among members of the United Nations Security Council, only getting evasive answers and not the necessary cooperation to face a danger so concrete. The intention of France was to set up a multinational force, able to act urgently to eradicate the fundamentalist militia, however, for different reasons, the permanent members have opted not to give effect to the request of the Elysée. On the attitude of Moscow, one can assume a political calculation as a result of the conduct of the Mediterranean countries towards Russia for the issue Ukraine; Beijing continues in his doctrine of non-intervention in the internal issues it considers of other states, although the increasing interest in Africa, would be authorized to be more involved, unless it is the will weaken its France, which in the region Action of Boko Haram has many interests, almost in competition with China itself. The involvement of Britain is judged only facade, while the United States does not seem to want to be involved in an action that has many risks. The intention would be to France's official support Nigeria and Chad, after they have obtained the official start of the African Union, and then vote on a resolution in favor of supporting the initiative to vote by the end of March or the beginning April. As we see the time frame of the diplomatic bureaucracy are incompatible with the character of urgency required by the advance of Boko Haram, which, after all, takes place in a context of humanitarian emergency to the problem of hunger in different areas involved. There is also one more enemy, that France must fight: the suspect is present in other African nations, that Paris wants to hire a colonialist attitude towards those countries which were under his domination. In fact, the French government intends to be involved in a secondary position, oriented more on the technological and logistical support, framed to support a coalition of Cameroon, Chad and Nigeria, which should act with a unified command to streamline efforts against militants Islamic. This, however, requires international support at least politically, which can be found only within the United Nations and specifically at the site of the Security Council. This requirement is special regard to the work of diplomats in Paris, which should not be left alone in a political initiative so important, as undervalued.
