Let's stay in the region...where a new regional alliance has been formed to tackle cross border terrorism. Four nations -- namely Burkina Faso, Benin, Niger and Togo -- have come together under the G4 Cooperation. The grouping aims to fight terrorism, trafficking and organized crime. Burkina Faso is already a member of G5 Sahel grouping -- which is struggling to counter an insurgency in the Sahel region. Burkina Faso's foreign minister, Alpha Barry, said the new alliance will complement the G5 Sahel's efforts in the fight against militancy.
