The members of the G5 Sahel and Minusma, the UN Stabilization Mission in Mali, will intensify their coordination in the fight against terrorism in the Sahel with the help of the European Union. The commitment was made on Tuesday, September 29, during a trialogue in Nouakchott, Mauritania.
At this meeting in the capital of Mauritania, the exchanges concerned, in particular the military equipment of the Joint Force G5 Sahel which is still awaiting the arrival of 24 staff carriers, as promised by the European Union last year.

Meanwhile, the force benefits from significant support from Minusma, especially in terms of food, logistics and medical assistance.
This meeting was also an opportunity to discuss the current situation in Mali, where a new President of the Transition and a Prime Minister have been appointed, but no government yet.
We are waiting for the rest of the development, especially the formation of a government, and we hope that this will not delay the fight against terrorism.
