The main idea of this article is that Rwanda and other neighboring states have joined in the fight against the Jihadists and other insurgency groups that have just recently attacked Mozambique’s Cabo Delgado Province. These insurgerist\/terrorist attacks started around October of 2017 and have only escalated since their uprising. In the recent attack on Cabo Delgado there were many reported dead and the Jihadists killed them by calling out their names outside their homes and then killing them on the spot, with many of the victims being Mozambique police officers. More than 6,000 Mozambique people have been murdered in this region counting both Jihadists and police officers. The conflict has led to mass displacement of the Mozambique people searching for either a refugee camp or just a way out of the violence. This has led to neighboring states to join in on the fight to end the conflict and protect their borders that they share with Mozambique. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This article has important meaning because the article says that the violence has only intensified as time goes which means that it’s only time until a huge violent coercive conflict gets created from the constant violence. This point is important to bring up because Cabo Delgado is right on the border of Tanzania and is in the direct line of fire of other Central African states like Rwanda. So if this conflict were to spill out of Mozambique there are many other states that would be negatively affected by the conflict.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mozambique can respond to this by using their allies in the African Union to attempt to silence or just take out the Jihadists in the most peaceful way possible. They could also just do blitzkrieg and run them out of the area. The only problem with this is they might just migrate into Tanzania or Rwanda. Rwanda and Tanzania have already taken a good first step by joining the fight but they need to probably do more then just join it and act like their the main victim because if they don’t they will become the main victim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I can relate this situation to the premise of power because in this conflict both sides are using hard power in able to obtain their goals with little to no soft power because of the lack of attempt of diplomacy and working with allies that Mozambique maybe should be doing. The best way to combat this problem would be to use smart power by working on communication with the group before attack to attempt to have the least amount of casualties.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
