Must ReadPresident Bassirou Diomaye Faye's election to lead the Economic Community of West African States ECOWAS marks a new phase for Senegalese diplomacy. This presidency offers Dakar an opportunity to regain a leading role within the sub-regional organization, especially as ECOWAS faces one of its most severe crises. Dr. Omar Saliou L么, an expert in international relations and diplomacy who worked at ECOWAS for over a decade, stated that this election was not a surprise. He explained that the organization's presidency follows a rotation principle among member states. According to Dr. L么, the position was due to Senegal even before Sierra Leone. He noted that while it was Senegal's turn, Bassirou Diomaye Faye had just come to power and lacked the diplomatic experience needed to lead an organization dealing with a major crisis, particularly with the Alliance of Sahel States AES countries threatening to leave ECOWAS. Therefore, Dr. L么 believes this designation is not solely a result of recent Senegalese diplomatic initiatives, as it was already known that Senegal was slated for this presidency.
