Ethiopia Participates in African Union Peace and Security Council Field Mission to Guinea

Addis Ababa, May 31, 2025 (ENA)—Ethiopia is participating in the African Union Peace and Security Council (AUPSC) field mission of Guinea from 30 to 31 May 2025.

The mission aims to promote peace, security, and stability across the continent and, more specifically, to support the sisterly nation of Guinea during its political transition, according to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

The visit provides an opportunity for the AUPSC to engage directly with Guinean authorities, assess the current status of the transition toward constitutional order, and explore ways to enhance coordination of peacebuilding initiatives at both regional and continental levels.

 

The Council is holding productive consultations with Guinean officials. During these discussions, AUPSC member states expressed appreciation for the Guinean authorities’ openness and commitment to dialogue.

They acknowledged the recent positive political developments and encouraged continued cooperation with the African Union and the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) to ensure a smooth and inclusive transition.

 

Ethiopia’s Deputy Permanent Representative to the African Union and the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa (UNECA), Ambassador Nebiyu Tedla, is representing Ethiopia in the AUPSC mission.
