One of Africa’s longest-serving presidents, Idriss Déby of Chad, was recently killed in a battle against rebels advancing towards the capital. His shocking death has thrown the country’s frequently tempestuous politics into further turmoil, even as the rebels remain in the field. In this episode, Joshua Meservey, Heritage’s senior policy analyst for Africa and the Middle East, talks about Chad’s President Deby, what's at stake for this troubled region in Africa, and what this means for America and our allies.
