The accord, initially slated to be signed 25 November, is aimed at urging Malian authorities to cooperate in fighting illegal migration by facilitating the issuance of passes to deserving Malians and properly deporting illegal Malian immigrants.
In return, the French government is promising very limited possibilities for migration and development aid.
Malian civil society organisations are of the view that the agreement should discourage the deportation of other countries' nationals to Mali.
