Les élections présidentielles en Algérie et en Tunisie ont le même objectif : conforter le statu quo autoritaire et le même climat répressif des opposants.

The Venezuelan defence minister has described anti-government protests which erupted after the disputed election result was announced as "a coup".

As people gathered for fresh protest rallies, Gen Vladimir Padrino read out a statement saying that President Nicolás Maduro had the "absolute loyalty and unconditional support" of the armed forces, which would "defeat the coup".

Moins de cinq mois après la destitution du président nigérien Mohamed Bazoum lors d'un coup d'État, la France, ancienne puissance coloniale, a retiré ce vendredi, ses dernières troupes qu'elle avait déployées dans cet État d'Afrique de l'Ouest pour combattre les militants islamistes qui menacent la stabilité de la région.
