Summary

Burkina Faso continues to face significant challenges related to security and food insecurity and remains committed to addressing them. The authorities have formed the Alliance of Sahel States (AES) with Mali and Niger; while they decided to leave ECOWAS in January, they have since reaffirmed their commitment to WAEMU membership. The authorities have in May extended the political transition with elections now planned to take place in five years, and the risk of further political instability remains high. Fund relations have remained strong and collaborative.
