Following the end of the Algiers Accord on January 25, 2024, the Inter-Malian Dialogue and its recommendations, officially presented to the Head of State on May 13, 2024, remain the only framework for resolving internal conflicts. We reiterate a call to all Malians to engage in this reconciliation process.”
