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.
