#Evstigneeva: The situation in #Mali constitutes a key factor of regional security. We trust that decisions made by West African countries in 2020 and 2021 and aimed at boosting counter-terrorism efforts will be translated into action. https://t.co/CGyP5oZzMt https://t.co/Fa3BMPgCVW

#Evstigneeva on #Mali: We welcome the launch of national dialogue w/various social & political forces that should forge unity around needed reforms, garner support for realistic election timetable. Though w/delays, DDR & deployment of reformed armed forces in the North's underway https://t.co/xzD5p4P6nJ

#Polyanskiy: “Wagner Group" has nothing to do with any officials in Russia🇷🇺. It's not supported by the state. If it's on the market, so then it's up to any country to choose whether they cooperate with this company or not. And #Mali🇲🇱 is not an exception. https://t.co/fATMihkekr

#Polyanskiy: #Russia🇷🇺 and #Mali🇲🇱 have established government-level cooperation, but this is a different story, and it has nothing to do with the allegations about the involvement of “Wagner Group”. @mfa_russia https://t.co/yfMFBlTDaj

#Nebenzia: Betterment of the situation in #Mali, implementation of the peace agreement, eradication of #terrorism, and improvement of the socio-economic situation are most dependent on domestic political stability. 🔗https://t.co/HetmwbHIiG https://t.co/Z8y3KYwxOM

#Nebenzia: Security situation [in #Mali🇲🇱] remains complicated. Extremists keep terrorizing the local population, attacking Malian military formations and UN🇺🇳 #peacekeepers. Malian armed forces and the UN #BlueHelmets continuously sustain losses. https://t.co/9BHbY2E6io

#Nebenzia: Therefore, we welcome the engagement of #Mali|an transitional government that seeks to convene inclusive national dialogue with all stakeholders in order to determine the course of further reforms and development of the country. @mfa_russia https://t.co/vIEoXJwzJc

#Nebenzia: Security stakes for #Mali and the region are too high. Malians🇲🇱 are fully entitled to cooperating with other partners that are ready to work together to enhance security. Criticism of such action is hypocritical and disrespectful of a sovereign state. https://t.co/fLRH3hNRFQ

#Nebenzia: Speaking about the #Mali|an settlement, we always proceed from the principle “African solutions – to the African problems”. In this context, we support mediator efforts that are based on the principle of zero-interference in internal affairs. https://t.co/n4GQjRquks

#Nebenzia: By all means, the situation in #Mali🇲🇱 is the key factor of regional security. We stand ready to work closely on the proposals to expand the UNSC assistance to the #G5Sahel Joint Force. https://t.co/YdlQKUYVRn
