In July, Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger jointly announced the formation of the Confederation of Sahel States, nine months after forming their defensive Alliance of Sahel States (AES) and withdrawing from the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) in January 2024.
The Confederation of Sahel States (CSS) has officially unveiled its logo, symbolizing the unity and solidarity of its three member nations:
Mali, Niger, and Burkina Faso.
The emblem, unveiled following a meeting of high-level officials in Mali's capital Bamako, features a radiant sun and a majestic baobab tree, representing life and diversity, set against the silhouettes of people, signifying the interconnectedness of the Sahel's diverse populations.
Three stars prominently displayed represent the three founding member states. Accompanying the logo is the slogan: "One Space – One People –
One Destiny," encapsulating the confederation's vision for a shared future.
On September 16, 2023, Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger created the AES, a regional collective defense organization. In late January 2024, the three countries announced a joint decision to withdraw as soon as possible from ECOWAS, which they said was "under the influence of foreign powers and has become a threat to the member states and their peoples."
On July 6, Ouagadougou, Bamako, and Niamey announced the creation of the
Confederation of Sahel States to achieve deeper cooperation and integration, with Mali assuming leadership of the new union for one year.
