« L'Afrique est-elle le prochain califat ? », demandait il y a deux ans l'universitaire français Luis Martinez, dans un ouvrage au titre provocateur, paru aux éditions Tallandier. Aujourd'hui, la question se pose au Mali, où les jihadistes du Jnim essayent d'imposer le blocus de Bamako et où les États-Unis et la France conseillent à leurs ressortissants de quitter le pays au plus vite. Mais y a-t-il vraiment une menace sécuritaire de la part des jihadistes sur la ville de Bamako ? Luis Martinez, qui est directeur de recherches au Centre de recherches internationales (CERI), répond aux questions de Christophe Boisbouvier. RFI : Deux ans après la sortie de votre livre, continuez-vous de penser que l'Afrique peut devenir le prochain califat ? Luis Martinez : Je pense qu'en Afrique, et en particulier dans le Sahel, il y a des conditions pour voir émerger des territoires qui seraient gouvernés par des jihadistes, qui chercheraient à mettre en œuvre ce qu'ils cherchent depuis quelques années, à savoir un califat. Quand vous dites que le jihadisme est en expansion, pensez-vous en priorité à l'Afrique de l'Ouest ou à l'Afrique de l'Est ? Disons que le vivier, le cœur ou l'épicentre, c'est clairement le Sahel. Tout simplement parce que les conditions de ces dix dernières années nous montrent qu'il y a eu une constellation qui a favorisé leur expansion. Je ne reviens pas sur les déterminants intérieurs et régionaux, mais les conditions ont été vraiment propices à leur développement. Et leur projet ne s'arrête pas là. Il est clair qu'on voit bien qu'il y a des tentatives vers l'Afrique de l'Ouest, sur le Bénin, le Togo, le Nigeria, bien évidemment, et depuis longtemps dans certaines régions. Mais le Sahel reste quand même l'épicentre en raison d'un certain nombre de conditions qui sont quand même très favorables. Certains observateurs disent qu'après ses échecs en Irak et en Syrie, le groupe État islamique essaie de faire de l'Afrique de l'Est une base de repli, notamment en Somalie ? En Somalie, c'est clair qu'il y a dans l'État semi-autonome du Puntland ou d'autres régions, là aussi, des conditions qui pourraient amener à une installation. Mais en même temps, on est en Somalie, c'est un environnement qui, peut-être, n'est pas celui du Sahel, avec un engagement des États-Unis qui, sans doute, limite ou limiterait, dans la durée, la possibilité de vraiment s'y installer. Pour revenir à l'Afrique de l'Ouest, quel est, à votre avis, le pays le plus exposé à l'instauration d'un éventuel califat jihadiste ? Clairement, c'est le Mali qui apparaît dans l'agenda jihadiste comme celui qui pourrait le plus facilement, dans les semaines, les mois, voire les années à venir, constituer un terrain nouveau d'instauration d'un califat. Alors pourquoi ? Tout simplement parce qu'il y a quand même un isolement de Bamako, à la fois vis-à-vis de la France et vis-à-vis du voisin algérien. Mais également, ses partenaires et alliés, que ce soit le Burkina ou le Niger, ont eux-mêmes de graves difficultés sur place pour pouvoir lui venir en aide. Quant à la Russie, je pense que les quelque 2 000 ou 3 000 mercenaires de l'Africa Corps ne peuvent strictement rien faire face à une insurrection jihadiste. On l'a vu avec la France avec ses 6 000 hommes, ce ne sont pas les 2 000 ou 3 000 hommes de la Russie qui vont modifier la donne. Je pense que l'approche militaire, de toute manière, est vouée à l'échec. Parce qu'il faudrait vraiment passer par les armes et faire des massacres dans toutes les régions du Mali pour restaurer l'ordre et la sécurité, ce que quasiment aucun État occidental n'assumerait de faire. Et évidemment, la Russie a d'autres soucis en Europe et en Ukraine pour pouvoir considérer que le Mali est stratégique dans sa politique. Aujourd'hui, l'armée malienne est quand même assez isolée pour pouvoir bénéficier d'une capacité, non seulement de résistance, mais de reconquête de son territoire. Cela me semble, comme beaucoup d'observateurs, voué à l'échec. Quand vous voyez que les États-Unis et les grands pays européens appellent leurs ressortissants à quitter Bamako, y voyez-vous le signe d'une prise possible de cette capitale africaine, notamment par le Jnim d'Iyad Ag Ghaly ? Je ne sais pas dans les détails. Aujourd'hui, Bamako peut tomber ou pas. Ce qui est sûr, c'est que depuis quelques années, le Jnim a construit une vraie stratégie pour, entre guillemets, isoler Bamako sur le plan territorial, isoler le pouvoir politique sur le plan sociétal, dont l'influence est limitée. Et maintenant, sans doute, chercher à l'isoler économiquement, financièrement. Toutes ces conditions vont-elles faire que les militaires à Bamako vont considérer qu'il n'y a plus d'échappatoire ? Ou bien vont-ils estimer qu'ils peuvent s'en accommoder ? Un peu comme à Kaboul où, pendant des années, on s'est accommodé de ne pas pouvoir sortir au-delà de 30 km de Kaboul, parce qu'il y avait les talibans à côté. Voilà, cela va dépendre. Le Jnim n'a aucune capacité, aujourd'hui, de conquête, au sens militaire du terme, d'entrer dans Bamako. Le Jnim a toujours recherché ce qu'on pourrait appeler des partenaires politiques, militaires et religieux pour lui ouvrir les portes de Bamako. C'est-à-dire faire en sorte que, de l'intérieur, on se débarrasse de la junte et on négocie des alliances avec le Jnim dans ce qu'on pourrait appeler une co-gouvernance de la capitale et de l'État malien. À une époque passée, pas très lointaine, il y avait l'imam Mahmoud Dicko qui aurait pu remplir ce rôle. Lui-même avait fondé le Coordination des mouvements, associations et sympathisants de l'imam Dicko (CMAS), ce qui est donc une sorte de coordination de mouvements civils et religieux qui avait encouragé un dialogue jusqu'en 2019 et 2020. À partir de 2022, les militaires au pouvoir à Bamako l'ont quasiment pourchassé. Il est exilé en Algérie en ce moment. Mais c'est ce type de personnage que les groupes jihadistes recherchent. C'est-à-dire des figures religieuses, politiques, voire demain militaires, qui puissent être des passerelles pour ouvrir les portes de Bamako. Parce que les djihadistes du Sahel sont pour beaucoup des Arabes et des Touaregs qui seraient minoritaires dans la ville de Bamako ? Il y a à la fois cette dimension ethnique, communautaire qui jouerait, mais en même temps, il y a l'expérience passée, c'est-à-dire la conquête militaire d'une ville, voire sa prise complète du pouvoir. Le Jnim a bien regardé ce qui s'est passé avec le groupe État islamique du côté de Syrte, en Libye. Cela a généré immédiatement une coalition internationale pour déloger le groupe État islamique de la ville de Syrte en 2014 et 2015. Donc il y a cette idée que le Jnim ne veut pas apparaître comme un projet politique radical qui s'imposerait à la société, mais comme une alternative politique et religieuse que la société serait prête à accompagner. Cela fait quelques années que le Jnim, entre guillemets, gouverne un certain nombre de régions, et Bamako serait un peu la vitrine. Entrer par la force à Bamako pourrait susciter des réactions tout à fait contraires à son projet. Il y a dix ans, les attentats de Paris et de Saint-Denis ont été prémédités et préparés au Moyen-Orient, et donc pas en Afrique de l'Ouest. Est-ce à dire que les jihadistes qui opèrent en Afrique et au Sahel ne représentent pas une menace terroriste pour l'Europe ? Il me semble que le contexte du Moyen-Orient, qui était quand même un contexte d'ingérence de forces étrangères extrêmement importantes – la guerre d'Irak, la guerre contre Al-Qaïda, et toute une série de variables – avait construit une vraie haine de l'Occident et des pays alliés à l'Occident. Il me semble que l'on n'a pas cette configuration aujourd'hui dans le Sahel. À la rigueur, je dirais presque que c'est une chance pour la France aujourd'hui de ne pas être associée à cette avancée spectaculaire des jihadistes et de ne pas chercher à les combattre militairement sur place. Tout simplement parce qu'ainsi cela ne va pas générer un certain nombre de griefs, de colère contre la France. Il y a déjà le passé colonial. Il y a déjà le passé post-colonial de la Françafrique. Je pense qu'aujourd'hui, la France est, entre guillemets, mieux lotie en étant loin de ce type de transformation de la société du Sahel plutôt qu'en y étant présente. Cela ne veut pas dire demain que cette région ne pourrait pas, bien évidemment, devenir une base pour certains groupes qui, entre guillemets, échapperaient à la gouvernance du Jnim et chercheraient à exploiter les failles d'une gouvernance califale pour frapper l'Occident. Cela, en toute sincérité, je n'en sais rien aujourd'hui. À lire aussiMali: record d'enlèvements d'étrangers par les jihadistes

In part one of a three-part series relating to the recent U.S. House UAP Task Force hearing, the discussion focuses on a wild UFO video that was leaked to Rep. Eric Burlison. During the hearing, Burlison played the video for attendants that depicted a UFO filmed flying over the sea off the coast of Yemen in October 2024.
