The article discusses the pledge made by the Chairperson of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), Brahim Diop, to strengthen cooperation with Mali, Burkina Faso, and Niger, despite the official withdrawals that occurred in January 2025 due to disagreements over coups and sanctions. Diop emphasizes the importance of regional coordination in addressing common security challenges such as terrorism, illegal migration, and cross-border organized crime, highlighting that the geographical location and social and economic ties among the countries in the region necessitate continued collaboration. While ECOWAS faces challenges related to the increasing activity of armed groups and divisions within West Africa, the current phase requires coordinated responses to maintain stability, achieve economic integration, and promote free movement.
