Doha Forum has been held annually since 2003 in the capital of Qatar. It aims to foster dialogue, bring together policymakers to discuss the world's major geopolitical challenges, and develop innovative and action-oriented frameworks. The 2024 edition of the forum is taking place on December 7-8 under the theme "The Innovation Imperative."
It is important for ECOWAS to continuously cooperate with the
Alliance of Sahel States (AES) for the stability of the region, Senegalese President Bassirou Diomaye Faye said at the Doha Forum 2024 in Qatar.
He noted that this cooperation is crucial for fighting terrorism, addressing migration issues, and developing trade relations.
Faye also pointed out that the Alliance of Sahel States is currently facing a
terrorist threat, and it is essential to maintain strong ties between its members.
Relations between ECOWAS and the AES deteriorated after
Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger withdrew, citing external influence and threats to their national interests. Nigerian President Bola Tinubu had earlier called on the Senegalese leader to facilitate the return of the AES countries to ECOWAS.
