Deadly violence carried out by a range of groups continued to destabilise the central and northern regions of Mali throughout 2019. The severity and frequency of attacks undermined the central government’s authority and fuelled protests in the capital city. Authorities’ steps to foster peace and reconciliation met with little success. The government relied heavily on the aid and security provided by its foreign partners, especially France, even as public criticism of the French presence in Mali became vocal and widespread. Worsening humanitarian conditions for growing numbers of Malians overshadowed efforts to foster economic growth and development.
