Wagner in the Sahel: Shadow War, Strategic Interests, and Sovereignty in Dispute (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798299201741)

What lies behind the French withdrawal from the Sahel? Who profits from the silence of weapons and the opacity of alliances?
In this compelling and rigorous book, Étienne Morel sheds light on the growing presence of the Wagner group in the heart of the Sahel, revealing a dense web of strategic interests, invisible violence, and underground economies that shape the fate of millions. Mali, Burkina Faso, and Niger emerge not only as victims of instability, but as the stage for a new global dispute, where sovereignty, security, and resources become bargaining chips between military regimes and foreign actors.
Through meticulous research, local testimonies, and critical geopolitical analysis, Wagner in the Sahel exposes hidden massacres, information manipulation, and the transformation of conflicts into business models. From gold to uranium, from social media to paramilitary operations, this book is a call to international conscience-and a warning: what happens in the Sahel resonates far beyond its borders. More than a portrait of war, this work is a disturbing question about the present and future of a vital region and the complicities that leave it in the shadows.
