In the face of security challenges and regional instability, the President called for collective mobilization and the cultivation of national resilience, founded on the courage, solidarity, and engagement of every Burkinabe citizen.

Furthermore, the President insisted on the necessity of promoting local initiatives, valuing community knowledge, and stimulating the endogenous economy.
Sustainable development must be based on Burkina Faso’s capacity to produce, process, and consume locally, in line with a vision of economic sovereignty and social justice.
This speech serves as a reminder that building the nation cannot be achieved without collective courage and citizen engagement.
It outlines an ambitious national project where every Burkinabe is called upon to become an agent of change, an artisan of peace, and a builder of the future.
On the diplomatic front, cooperation among the countries of the Alliance of Sahel States (AES) is also highlighted as a strategic lever.
Captain Ibrahim Traoré sees this alliance as an opportunity to pool efforts, strengthen regional capacities, and build a diplomacy based on common interests and mutual respect.
This regional vision is part of a quest for strategic autonomy, free from external influences.
