    Impressive political events developing in . After lifting long-standing state of emegrency and opened talks with opposition, the new Ethiopian PM, Abiy, initiated peace feelers to , lifted the ban on number of media and now this below.

    For the first time in decades, the ban on the type of flag Ethiopians want to carry was lifted many felt free to waive the flag they cherish. "I cannot tell you the hope that sparks in me when I see you Ethiopians who have come together for love, and for forgiveness" PM Abiy

    About () crisis. Very disturbing news coming from Bamenda, as ELIE SMITH is reporting. Fow the Western followers, Bamenda is the capital of NW region, has a population of more that 250.000, and is 350 km from 's capital Yaounde.

    Bamenda is reportedly shutdown before official curfew after armed groups allegedly asked citizens to close down their activities or go home bc of planned showdown with security forces tonight. A resident I contacted confirmed the info & also told me he could hear gunshots.

    About () crisis. Answering to some followers, Biya course of action is for me stupid and short-sighted. He turned a solvable issue in Ambazonia to a head-on confict and unleashed a spree of violence which will ultimately turn against him.

    A article about situation in , both in the south where the Anglophone crisis is escalating and in the north where Boko Haram acts. I cannot comment on or evaluate the article because my knowledge of French is limited, but i post it anyhow.

    Au , des preneurs d’otages sèment la terreur dans l’Adamaoua. Des villages sont désertés. Une crise invisible au regard de celle qui traverse les zones anglophones et celle marquée par les attaques des djihadistes de Boko Haram-

    In , the Biya regime's governor of the NW region described situation in his area as orderly and called on the internally displaced people to return home. In this video below, posted by , you can see a "normal" scene in today's Ambazonia.

    This the area PM Yang is unveiling his so called package for Anglophone region. Is the package meant for these troops firing indiscriminately, the only people we now find on streets OR for the local population, who now live in bushes?

    This tweet below, by Jeffrey Smith , applies not only to but actually to all countries under oppressive, military or nor, dictatorships. I could name a few but what is more important to understand is that int'l pressure presupposes active citizens.

    "Toppling repressive regimes, and replacing them with viable democracies, is difficult. Two essential ingredients, especially for a frequently forgotten place like , are mass, non-violent protests and international pressure."

    On economic crisis. Eurozone+INF agree on a light version of debt relief, on monitoring terms after the termination of the bail-out program (August 20) and on fiscal guarantes for smooth re-admission of Greece in international monetary markets.

    Greece gets a 10 year extension in maturities related to the 2nd bailout; 10-year deferral on interest payments; 15bn euros as the last tranche

    2/2 Armed separatists' action in , on the other hand, seems localized and very limited because of vast superiority in firepower of the Biya military forces.

    A small but huge for some people step of improvement on inter-Korean relations.

    North & South Korea will allow 100 people from each side, separated from their families during the Korean War, to meet in Mt. Kumgang Aug 20-26. Many families have been split across the border with little or no contact since 1953. 60 percent of those remainjng are 80 or older.

    About the exploitaion of oil reserves in or, if you prefer, the exploitation of by the big oil companies. In any case, 's gov't has closed a deal with AfricaOilCorp but the specifics of the contract are yet to be disclosed.

    - oil deals still largely secret, including exploration deal financed in part by - "IFC has requested Africa Oil and government of Kenya to disclose contract, and remains in discussions about potential means and timing"

    A very interesting article about the recent and rising wave of violence in northern . There, Islamic exteremism on one one hand and gov'tal inefficiency on the other constitute a potentially explosive mix.

    Spoiler alert: No one has a clue what is driving the violence in northern Mozambique. But mixing Islamist militants, trigger-happy soldiers, vast reserves of natural gas and Erik Prince (of Blackwater infamy) seems like a terrible idea.
