💨 Abstract

In Mali, the military government led by Assimi Goita has dissolved all political parties, following a controversial recommendation from a national conference. This move has sparked protests in the capital, Bamako, with demonstrators calling for multi-party elections and criticizing the junta's increasingly authoritarian tactics. The junta had previously pledged to hold elections in February 2022 but delayed them. Reports of opposition politicians being abducted have raised concerns about escalating repression.
