A democratic way out of the crisis in Guinea-Bissau

Observador7 September 2026 at 00:20

The article addresses the need for a democratic way out of the political crisis in Guinea-Bissau. The text argues that the country's central problem is of a criminal nature, identifying drug trafficking as one of the main threats. Additionally, the author classifies coup-ism as a crime, establishing a parallel between different forms of criminal activity affecting the country. The article concludes that trying to see reality differently would be "fantasizing," suggesting that it is necessary to openly recognize the criminal nature of the problems afflicting Guinea-Bissau in order to adequately confront them.
