China-EU Investment Rule-Making and the Future of International Investment Law

Xiamen, 10. September 2013

One of the most striking developments in this respect is the emergence of developing countries, China being the most prominent example, with rising flows of outward foreign direct investment (FDI). As a result, China has a growing interest to support the global activities of its…

Après le retrait de la France, trois changements probables au Mali - et deux options pour la junte

Erforth, Benedikt / Bergmann, Julian (2022)
External Publications

Le président français, Emmanuel Macron, a annoncé un retrait progressif des troupes de l'opération Barkhane. Déjà, avant le coup d'État, le sentiment anti-français au Mali avait pris de l’ampleur et l'opinion publique française avait désapprouvé l'opération militaire. Au-delà des incertitudes, le retrait de la France aura des effets assez prévisibles, à savoir l'émergence d'un nouveau vide sécuritaire, d'un sentiment de désaffection plus profond entre la junte et les partenaires européens, et de nouveaux obstacles aux efforts de développement et d'aide humanitaire.
