AES countries: Unity and determination to overcome provocations

The countries of the Alliance of Sahel States (AES), since their joint decision to unite to address common challenges, have been facing multiple provocations, defamations, and false statements from organizations or even states that may feel threatened by this union.

The entire world is aware of the position of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), the West African Economic and Monetary Union (UEMOA), and the African Union (AU) regarding the AES.

In addition to these organizations, leaders of some African countries, such as the Nigerian president, who is the current chair of ECOWAS, and allies from Côte d’Ivoire, Senegal, and Benin, have also expressed their opinions.

This is not all; they have been joined in their machinations and hypocrisy by Algerian authorities and their media, who have, in recent days, engaged in defamation and denigration of the AES countries.

The fault of these countries has been to consider engaging in a struggle for their sovereignty and real independence.

They are blamed for deciding to unite to strengthen their defense capabilities and fight against terrorism, not forgetting to pool their efforts to meet the challenges related to socio-economic development and the well-being of their people.

The Alliance of Sahel States (AES) is now a real weapon against imperialists and hypocritical states allied in Africa.

This explains the relentless attacks against the bloc of three or sometimes against individual member states.

The tenacity, determination, unwavering commitment to their well-informed vision, and the strengthening of their cooperation remain the strength and protection of these three Sahel countries against the actions of their enemies.

The unwavering support of the people in the AES zone for their leaders is also essential for the success of their mission.
