Mali's interim prime minister said he was open to talks with Islamist militants whose insurgency has made vast swathes of the country ungovernable, but former colonial power France signaled opposition to the idea

BAMAKO - Mali’s interim prime minister said on Monday he was open to talks with Islamist militants whose insurgency has made vast swathes of the country ungovernable, but former colonial power France signalled opposition to the idea.

Malian officials have provided few specifics about what kinds of compromises could emerge, but some proponents of negotiations have said they could include recognition of a greater role for Islam in public life. “The conclusions of the inclusive national talks ... very clearly indicated the necessity of an offer of dialogue with these armed groups,” Ouane said at a news conference in Bamako with French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian who is on a two-day visit.“We need to see in that an opportunity to engage in far-reaching discussions with the communities in order to redefine the contours of a new governance of the areas that are concerned,” he said.

“Let’s say things very clearly: there are peace accords ... and then there are terrorist groups that have not signed the peace accords,” Le Drian said. “It is simple.”

France sees highest number of COVID-19 patients going into hospital since AprilFrench hospitals registered 1,307 new coronavirus patients on Monday in the highest one-day increase since April 2, which saw 1,607 new patients, as the health system comes under increasing stress from a runaway infection rate. I don't understand why this is happening after the use of masks, social distancing and other restrictions have come into place to slow the spread.
