It was suspecting ... as we noted here that the card layout AQIM (Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb) in the Sahel like "strange" that the implementation of the oil resources of the region, "The Chained Duck "reveals the diplomatic activism of Qatar on behalf of Islamist involvement in the financing of armed movements especially in the north of Mali .
According to the satirical weekly, the Emir of Qatar have helped financially the armed movements that took control of northern Mali. Among these groups are particularly famous Mujao, which holds seven Algerian diplomats hostage since 5 April.
In an article entitled " Our friend from Qatar Islamic finances of Mali , "the Chained Duck said that the Directorate of Military Intelligence (DRM), which reports to the Chief of Staff of the French armies, gathered information that" insurgents MNLA (independence and laity), movements Ansar Dine, AQIM and Mujao (Jihad in West Africa) received assistance dollars of Qatar. "
The end of the story: the impetuous volatile reveals that Qatar had "referred to s "on the wealth of the basement of the Sahel, évqouant" discreet negotiations "that have already started with Total" for next oil exploitation in the region in the future!
Also according to the Chained Duck, the French Minister of Defence, Jean-Yves Le Drian, " knows no bad news arrived from sub-Saharan Africa. And no involvement of " our friend from Qatar '- formula of an officer of the staff - in the " capture "of northern Mali by several jihadist movements. '
According to the weekly, earlier this year, " notes several of the DGSE alerted the Elysee international activities " , the Emirate of Qatar. But President Sarkozy are no responded not to disturb her "am" Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al-Thani, we are told.
According to these secret notes officers of the DRM, "Qatar's generosity is unparalleled," the emirate has also helped "financially, sometimes delivering weapons, revolutionary Tunisia, Egypt or Libya."
In January, while the Sahel region was subject to conditions more severe, the French oil giant Total announced that it had signed two exploration licenses with the Mauritanian authorities in the basin Taoudéni very promising.
The group has acquired, as operator, a 90% interest in Blocks C 9 in ultra-deep water and Ta 29 onshore in the basin Taoudéni. Mauritanian national company SMH will hold the remaining 10%.
The block C 9 is located approximately 140 kilometers west of the Mauritanian coast, extends over 10,000 km (! ...), With water depths ranging between 2,500 and 3,000 meters.Block Ta 29 is located in the Sahara desert 1,000 kilometers east of Nouakchott, north of Block Ta 7 in which Total is already conducting exploration activities.
In February 2011, the Algerian press reported that the e French group Total and Sonatrach Algerian national energy company had in their wallets several projects in the Sahel. Most seem to be two groups of "grab" the most possible projects in Mali and Niger.
Recent discoveries of mineral wealth in the basin Taoudéni wide, 1.5 million square kilometers, divided between Mali, Algeria, Mauritania and Niger, cause now make a strong interest in this area.
Jean François Arrighi de Casanova, Director North Africa Total has reported huge gas discoveries in the area, slowing the progression of the well to the oil zone, Mauritania and even leading to talk of a "new Eldorado" .
Through its international subsidiary Sipex, Sonatrach has also received approval from the Nigerian Ministry of Mines to conduct experimental drilling.
In Mali, a subsidiary of Sonatrach has since 2007 acquired a further two years from the Malian Ministry of Mines for the first exploration phase will end in 2013.
Mere coincidence? For three months of the presidential election in Mali, the government already faces kidnapping al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM) and the threat of a food crisis, had to face a new rebellion Tuareg and a coup d'état.
These attacks then being the first of its kind since an agreement that ended the rebellion but also from Libya return of hundreds of armed men who fought alongside the forces of Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi.
