- Abstract
- The article analyzes the current political situation in Côte d’Ivoire ahead of the 2025 presidential elections. It examines the influence of political competition between two Western powers, the United States and France, on Ivorian foreign policy. It is based on the preservation of Côte d’Ivoire as the main outpost, a rear base in the Sahel zone in order to block the growth of Russia’s influence in this region. The analysis allows us to assess the expectations of the population of this country and the problems of political renewal. The role of the political opposition, its strengths and weaknesses are examined. The elections promise a fierce competitive struggle and can change the balance of power in the country, since a new generation of young politicians is being formed in the main parties, from the government to the opposition. Particular attention is paid to foreign influence on the 2025 electoral process. The question of its real independence is raised in conditions when the country’s main leaders are involved in a geostrategic struggle between the great world powers, taking into account the coming to power of the new President D.Trump in the United States. The role of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in solving the problems of public awareness about the upcoming elections and the democratic culture of their conduct is shown. The methodology of the article is based on the dialectical approach, situation analysis and the principle of objectivity.
