Behind Thiam's Flowers to Dominique Ouattara, Speculations on a Negotiated Return

A delegation from PDCI-RDA, mandated by Tidjane Thiam, visited First Lady Dominique Ouattara. This gesture fuels speculation about a negotiated return of Thiam to Côte d'Ivoire. Sources close to RHDP see it as an attempt at appeasement, while PDCI denounces a politicization of simple courtesy. Signs of détente between the two parties had already been observed during PDCI's 80th anniversary.
