The evening before the president's departure, General James Jones, the commander of the US European command with responsibility for African operations, announced that the US was considering the establishment of a string of long- term military bases across the continent.
Djibouti is already home to roughly 1,500 marines and special forces, making the US one of the African Horn nation's biggest employers, and perhaps more importantly, placing US troops within close proximity of Somalia, Sudan and Yemen -- traditional havens for terrorist cells, Al-Qa'eda among them.
American presidents do not often pay state visits to Africa, while this particular one, combined with US gesturing towards keeping a fragile peace in a fractured Liberia, may be a first step towards bringing the continent, nearly forgotten, back into the collective consciousness.

 Forum's Response to the Annan Report
President Guelleh’s staff prepared the list and invited the participants; thus, a closed list handpicked by President Guelleh was painted as an independent advisory committee.
President Guelleh later admitted on the Somali Service of the BBC that he did that as a revenge for the Djibouti delegation that was returned.
President Guelleh was thus practicing censorship and dictatorial measures by curtailing the freedom of the press and speech.

 PINR - Moscow's Political Tactics Alienating its Near Abroad
While Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili and Ukrainian President Viktor Yushchenko were in Strasburg for a Council of Europe Parliamentary Assembly (P.A.C.E.) meeting, Russian President Vladimir Putin made no secret of meeting separatist leaders in Moscow, including the newly-elected president of Abkhazia Sergei Bagapsh and the defeated Ukrainian presidential candidate Victor Yanukovych.
That added to dissatisfaction with Russia's continued support of President Robert Kocharian, whose victory in 2003 is widely disputed by opposition parties and the public.
Although opposition presidents are well aware of the importance of good relations with Putin, political games force them to turn increasingly to Europe and the United States for aid and support in an effort to balance more evenly between Russia and the West.
