Is Mali about to fall to an al-Qaeda-affiliated armed group?

Al-Qaeda-linked fighters have blocked fuel deliveries to Mali’s capital for two months. They want to seize territory and drive out Western influence. But could their ultimate goal be to control the country? And what would that mean for the rest of the Sahel?

In this episode: 

• Moussa Kondo, Executive Director, Sahel Institute.
• Oluwole Ojewale, Regional Coordinator, West and Central Africa, Institute for Security Studies.
• Nicolas Normand, Former French Ambassador to Mali, Senegal and Congo Republic/Congo-Brazzaville.
