G5 Sahel: Joint [Counter-Terrorist] Force (FC-G5S) (DIEEEA37-2017)

The situation in Mali, especially in the central region, has been deteriorating for the past months. A group of countries in the region known as G5 Sahel (Burkina Faso, Mali, Mauritania, Niger and Chad) has decided to set up a joint military force to fight against jihadist terrorism. The project has been particularly driven by the African Union as well as the EU (political and financial support). After the inclusion of the dossier, with French support, on the UN Security Council agenda, the process has culminated in a resolution supporting this initiative, but that still leaves unresolved very important problems, such as the mandate or funding.
