The article “Los pactos entre sectas favorecen la expansión terrorista al sur del Sahara” by Pedro Rossel and Á. Nieto for the Spanish daily newspaper La Razón, which was pulished in print on May 18th, discusses the South-Saharan expansion of terrorist movements and the spreading of Boko Haram across the borders of Nigeria. In this context, Yan St-Pierre gave his analysis on which factors could explain the exponential growth of Boko Haram since 2009, whether Boko Haram’s activities will also spread across Nigeria’s borders, and how the group finances itself. Some of his answers will also appear in the Chilean newspaper La Hora.
