Precarious situation in Mali
As you undoubtedly know, Mali is going through a very critical period in these days. The local and international press are full of information on the developments of the situation and the conflict.
This week, Mrs. Marie-Josée Jacobs, Minister for Development Cooperation, had invited the Luxembourgish NGOs for a briefing and exchange on the positions held by the Luxembourgish government regarding the recent events in Mali.

In terms of our two projects in Mali, namely the computer center and the community schools, we are almost daily in contact with our partners in field and so far their news are relatively reassuring.
The problem is looting and other disorders together with the arrival of the rebels in different localities of northern Mali and the lack of food, fuel and medicine which has become more severe due to the implementation of a new embargo by the ECOMOG countries . The wave of refugees is another great challenge nowadays.
As described by Toussaint, one of our local friends: "There is a climate of uncertainty, since it is difficult to say what the situation in Mali will be like in two days, one week, two months, or a year... Once again, thank you for thinking of us and praying for a peaceful solution to overcome this crisis."
