The political crisis in Cote d'Ivoire continues despite intense
international efforts to negotiate a solution. The winner of
November's presidential election, Alassane Ouattara, has been
prevented from taking office by the incumbent, Laurent Gbagbo.
Ouattara, along with his government-in-waiting, is confined to
Abidjan's Golf Hotel, protected by a cordon of UN peacekeepers and
effectively cut off from the outside world. CSIS has established a
telephone link with Ouattara, which will allow him to address a
public audience in the United States for the first time since the
election standoff began.
Please RSVP to AFRICA@CSIS.ORG [2], as space is limited.
This event will begin promptly at 10:00am.
