Why this matters

The Sahel and North Africa have experienced heightened political instability and environmental disasters recently, prompting regional powers to prioritize soft diplomacy. Algeria has historically positioned itself as a mediator in West African affairs, while Oman leverages its neutral stance to maintain Gulf-North African ties. These gestures signal coordinated efforts to stabilize neighboring states without direct intervention.
