    Le Cameroun dispose d'importants gisements de minerais, notamment de fer, de la bauxite, d'or, de cobalt, de nickel, de manganèse, de calcaire, de marbre, de diamants, entre autres. L'industrie minière du pays est restée dominée par l'exploitation artisanale et à petite échelle, en particulier l'orpaillage, tandis que les hydrocarbures ont représenté l'essentiel des recettes issues des industries extractives. Le pays cristallise ainsi le paradoxe africain : malgré l’ampleur et la di ...

With polls pointing to a runoff on October 25 and currently showing a statistical tie between Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and Flávio Bolsonaro in vote simulations, I'm naturally asked about their economic programs and about the country's relations with the United States. ...

    Depuis 2010, environ, on sait que la Méditerranée orientale est une nouvelle province gazière. Des ressources gazières ont en effet été découvertes au large de quatre pays ou territoires, l’Égypte, Israël, Chypre et Gaza. Deux d’entre eux sont devenus producteurs et exportateurs de gaz naturel, l’Égypte et Israël. Au large de Gaza, le champ gazier de Gaza Marine n’a jamais été développé et il est très peu probable qu’il le soit prochainement en raison des très fortes tensions entre ...

    Since around 2010, it has been known that the Eastern Mediterranean is a new gas province. Gas resources have indeed been discovered offshore four countries or territories: Egypt, Israel, Cyprus and Gaza. Two of them have become producers and exporters of natural gas, Egypt and Israel. Off the coast of Gaza, the Gaza Marine gas field has never been developed, and it is highly unlikely to be developed anytime soon given the very high tensions between the State of Israel and Hamas. By ...
