The President of the Union of the Comoros, Azali Assoumani, the first Head of State to visit the new Secretary General of La Francophonie, took the opportunity of this meeting to renew his congratulations to Louise Mushikiwabo for her election which had seen Africa speak with one voice.
In his declared determination to see the next Comorian elections take place in total transparency, the President of the Republic has shown his willingness to see the OIF accompany the electoral process underway, including by sending observers. “It is essential that the
President who will come out of the polls is unquestionable and totally legitimate for all, “he said.
The relationship between OIF and Comoros is a long-term relationship. Indeed, the OIF has always accompanied the Comoros, since their accession to independence, both in terms of development and education and in its democratic process.
“This deep and historic link is destined to become even stronger,” Mushikiwabo said, reaffirming the OIF’s willingness to respond to President Azali Assoumani’s request for support. “I will make OIF’s engagement on the ground real and sincere. I firmly believe in an organization that accompanies the States, an organization that listens to
prejudices, “she said.
The Comorian President welcomed the strengthening of this cooperation and invited the Secretary General to come and discover the “perfume islands”.
