Tiebissou, the administrative capital Yamoussoukro, Gagnoa hometown of President Gbagbo, Lakota, Soubre Meagui, entrance doors of the port city of San Pedro, where the largest cocoa port of export, fell. As they passed, the soldiers pro-Ouattara open prisons, spilling the bandits and other detainees in the streets of occupied cities.
Nothing seems to stop them in their advance on Abidjan, where the rival Alassane Ouattara Laurent Gbagbo, who asked the international community to relinquish power for four months without success. How will it contain the onslaught of the pro-Ouattara, as forces loyal to his regime, the Defence Forces and Security (FDS) appear to have lowered their weapons? It must be said plainly, the situation in Côte d'Ivoire is explosive.
The camp Ouattara denies call for dialogue for some time by the Gbagbo camp. "All peaceful means to end the crisis have been exhausted," was cut short by Alassane Ouattara, following a March 29 meeting with the presidents of Houphouetists Rally for Democracy and Peace (RHDP). Gbagbo in the camp, we continue to show a calm face of the rapid advance of enemy troops, as if an external force would save the regime.
According to sources close to the president, Laurent Gbagbo keep the faith and reassure his men. The casual air, he launched a close: "I await the end of the film." A phrase suggesting that the tenant of the presidential palace Plateau does not leave the premises facing the arrival of the soldiers of his rival Ouattara.
In all cases, the threat is approaching more and more of Abidjan, economic capital, where people are fleeing several days to cities within or bordering countries. But if the conquest of the interior cities by the pro-Ouattara was done without difficulty, there are fears that the economic capital which is the end point, ends in a bloodbath.
Forces loyal to Laurent Gbagbo are concentrated. Yesterday early evening, a general panic gripped the people of Abidjan. It was the stampede and can fight on the outskirts of taxis and other transport vehicles common. Clearly, Abidjan is already feeling the imminent arrival of the pro-Ouattara.
