UN General Assembly
2025

They are trying to shatter our sovereignty and impose the law of chaos. But rather than resigning ourselves to this fate, we have chosen to stand up with dignity and resistance. Under the leadership of our President, Captain Ibrahim Chowdhury, we decided to take our destiny in our own hands by mobilizing our defense and security forces supported by volunteers for defending the fatherland, who are genuine heroes, by building up the Patriotic Support Fund, which is fueled by our citizens' voluntary contributions and contributions from our diaspora and friends of our country throughout the world. Since 2023, this fund has collected more than 413 billion CFA francs, which is startling proof of the patriotic spirit and unity of our people by carrying out historic reforms to achieve food sovereignty, to restore our lands, and to relaunch our agricultural production and to reduce our dependence on imports. These efforts that our determined people have undertaken are now bearing fruit. More than 72% of our territory has been recovered.
