Abstract EN:
Since 1960, when they became independent, african countries have been maintaining bilateral relations between themselves. But, these relationships are not well known on a world scale, because the experts of international relations consider the conflict between east and west to be most important problem. The congo has developed a firm friendship with its northern border countries : cameroon and the c. A. R. Yet, since 1960, the relations between the congo and its border countries have been sometimes cordial and sometimes strained. In the political sphere for instance, we can say that the socialist ideology adopted by the congolese authorities, has contributed to break up relations imposed upon african populations by the ex-colonial countries. Relations between the congo and its borders (cameroon and the c. A. R. ) are just official. I mean there are diplomatic, cultural and public relations. The congo has made cooperation agreements with cameroon and above all with the c. A. R. Inspite of the existence of the legal instruments, the economic, commercial, social and cultural exchanges between the congo and its neighbours are poor. To sum up, let's say that the cooperation between the congo and cameroon or the congo and the c. A. R. Can't be, right now, a model of cooperation between african countries.
Abstract FR:
Les pays africains, admis a la souverainete internationale en 1960, entretiennent aussi entre eux des relations bilaterales. Mais ces dernieres sont peu connues. Elles sont en effet releguees a l'arriere-plan de la recherche par les specialistes des relations internationales, qui se preoccupent plus du conflit est-ouest. Le congo-brazzaville a etabli des liens avec les pays frontaliers du nord : cameroun et centrafrique. Guides des 1960 par la necessite du bon voisinage et de la non ingerance dans les affaires interieures d'un autre etat, ces rapports ont connu des periodes de tension ouverte ou latente. Sur le plan politique, l'ideologie socialiste congolaise a compromis gravement les vieilles relations de bon voisinage imposees par la colonisation europeenne entre les populations congolaises, centrafricaines et camerounaises. Les relations congolo-camerounaises d'une part, et d'autres part congolo-centrafricaines sont officielles. Elles vont des contects intermittents aux missions diplomatiques regulieres. Le congo-brazzaville a conclu plusieurs accords de cooperation avec le cameroun, mais aussi avec le centrafrique. Toutefois, malgre l'existence de ces instruments juridiques, ses echanges economiques, commerciaux sociaux et culturels avec les etats du cameroun et du centrafrique restent faibles. La cooperation congo-cameroun et congo-centrafrique ne constitue pas encore un modele de cooperation interetatique en afrique.
