Former Barrick exec now advises Mali's president amid mining disputes and legal tensions.
A top Barrick executive, Hilaire Diarra, has switched from representing the mining giant in negotiations with Mali to advising Mali's President, Assimi Goita.
This move comes amid tensions over unpaid taxes and royalties, with Barrick negotiating a new mining code that would increase Mali's control over its mineral wealth.
Relations have further soured following the arrest of Barrick executives on financial crimes charges and the company's dispute with Mali over gold stock seizures, now in arbitration at the World Bank.
