After the death of four French tourists in Mauritania on Christmas Eve, the French government advised their citizens not to travel there. Furthermore, 9 stages of the Lisbon-Dakar (formerly Paris Dakar) rally drive through Mauritania.
After further terrorist threats, the 6,500 mile event has now been cancelled. Shame on all those responsible for conspiring against the fate of this amazing, historic event. However, I guess the world is just a little different to last year.
