New Players & Dynamics in the MENA region & Africa
With global actors increasingly showing interest in the MENA region and Africa, several new players have emerged and continuously work towards expanding their presence and influence in the region, challenging the existing balance and creating new dynamics.
In this framework, the Policy Center for the New South, in partnership with Middle East Directions, organize a panel of discussion under the theme “New Players & Dynamics in the MENA region & Africa” on Friday 24th January at the Policy Center’s headquarters.
The panel will raise the following salient points:
· Can external actors play a stabilising role in North Africa? Does the EU still have a role to play?
· What is China's strategy in the region and how does it differ from other external players?
· What is the impact of the Russia's growing in North Africa? What role is the GCC playing in North Africa?
