Beyond President Trump's Distraction: The Very Serious Profiling of Heads of State Visiting the United States 18/07/2025
Summary :
In this episode of Les Voix de WATHI, Pape Abdou Ndour examines the highly publicized July 9, 2025, meeting at the White House between Donald Trump and five African presidents (Gabon, Guinea‑Bissau, Liberia, Mauritania, Senegal). Beneath the surface of ceremonial protocol, the author reveals that Washington relies on the CIA to conduct serious profiling of foreign leaders through a comprehensive briefing — covering personality, goals, national context, friction points, and political outlook — to grant the U.S. president a strategic edge . This preparation is detailed in an article by Judd Devermont, Intelligence Advantage: Profiling African Leaders’ Meeting with U.S. Presidents. Such intelligence-driven diplomacy shapes interactions before, during, and after visits. Considering this intense strategic exercise, the author urges African countries to enhance their own information-gathering capabilities to better defend their interests

What Role for Senegal in the Crisis Between the AES and ECOWAS? 16/05/2025
Summary :
This Policy Brief explores Senegal’s role in mediating the crisis between ECOWAS and the Alliance of Sahel States (AES), formed by Mali, Burkina Faso, and Niger after their withdrawal from ECOWAS. Drawing on its diplomatic tradition and neutrality, Senegal, under President Bassirou Diomaye Faye, has been appointed as a facilitator. While Senegal officially promotes the AES’s return to ECOWAS, its emissary's statements suggest a more nuanced stance. The brief analyzes issues of regional integration, governance, security cooperation, and sovereignty. It highlights the need for realistic mediation, one that acknowledges the AES states’ security concerns while preserving ECOWAS’s democratic and economic frameworks. The document also emphasizes the regional consequences of the split, including economic fragmentation and weakened security cooperation, urging Senegal to play a strategic and balanced role.

Cybercrime in Côte d’Ivoire in 2024: Key Findings of the ANSSI Report 18/07/2025
Summary :
The ANSSI Côte d’Ivoire’s 2024 report, by Colonel Major Guelpétchin Ouattara, highlights a sharp rise in cybercrime complaints—from 6,579 in 2022 to 12,100 in 2024 (+84%) . The most frequent incidents include violations of human dignity, online scams, identity theft, defamation, and account hijacking. Despite increased case numbers, financial losses dropped from 9.2 to 6.9 billion FCFA, due to stronger cooperation among ANSSI, banks, and cyber-defense teams. Established in October 2024, ANSSI now oversees national cybersecurity by merging CI‑CERT, the national SOC, the CLI misinformation center, and CFAD, achieving a 68% complaint resolution rate. In anticipation of the 2025 elections, ANSSI plans to enhance real-time monitoring, public awareness campaigns, civil servant training, and international cooperation to mitigate electoral cyber threats.

Meeting between Trump and Five African Presidents: How Can Diomaye Faye’s Senegal Benefit from It? 14/07/2025
Summary :
The article highlights the unprecedented Washington meeting held from July 9 to 11, 2025, between Donald Trump and five African presidents (Gabon, Guinea-Bissau, Liberia, Mauritania, Senegal). While Trump implemented an executive order suspending U.S. aid and pivoting his foreign policy towards bilateral deals grounded in trade and security, this summit presents a strategic opportunity for Senegal, under President Bassirou Diomaye Faye. Aligning with its “Senegal 2050” agenda, the country can capitalize on this shift by asserting regional leadership, showcasing its strengths in security, energy, and digital sectors, and positioning itself as a key player amid China and BRICS influence. The global shift from traditional aid to structured commercial partnerships provides a platform for Senegal to emerge as a reliable strategic partner, attracting productive investment.
