MALAWI: SPECTRE OF POLITICAL VIOLENCE LOOMS OVER RELATIONS WITH DONORS AND THE IMF

   Tue, 10 September 2019

Following a two week ban on protests, political demonstrations are set to resume across major cities. Security forces will seek to protect border crossings and airports from blockades, although a spike in retaliatory attacks, intimidation tactics, and political assassinations may increase the prospect of violence that would threaten relations with donors and the IMF. Optimistic economic projections may also be thwarted by commercial disruption and weak tobacco sales.
