In January 2025, the Alliance of Sahel States (AES), Niger, Mali, and Burkina Faso marked the first anniversary of their announced decision to withdraw from ECOWAS. Since then, the AES has initiated many agreements, including cultural cooperation, plans to introduce a common visa, and the recent issuance of the AES biometric passport.

The new flag of the Alliance of Sahel States (AES) was presented to Malian President Assimi Goïta on Monday. The delegation of ministers from the Confederation of Sahel States attended the event.

"A very beautiful flag that will be brought to the attention of all the peoples of the AES," said Célestin Simporé, the Minister of Defense of Burkina Faso.
