1:12:15Now PlayingAmid mass anti-government protests, a group of Malian military officers overthrew the government in August 2020, pledging to restore stability and hand power back to civilians. However, military officers led a second coup in May 2021 — adding to concerns that the military junta did not intend to give up power quickly. Despite international and regional pressure to commit to elections, coup leaders have yet to demonstrate progress, postponing planned December meetings intended to set new election dates.
This conversation looks at what led to the two coups, the roles played by Malian, regional and international actors and the prospects for a return to democracy in Mali.
