Abstract

The AU Peace and Security Council (PSC), at its 1284th meeting on 19 June 2025, considered the report of its field mission to Guinea (30–31 May 2025). The PSC recalled prior AU decisions on unconstitutional changes of government and noted presentations from the Tanzanian and Sierra Leonean ambassadors. It adopted the field mission report and urged implementation of its recommendations, with regular updates to the Council. The PSC commended Guinea’s Transition Authorities for progress on the Transition Roadmap and urged continued commitment to completing it by December 2025 to restore constitutional order. It stressed the importance of inclusivity in Guinea’s political process, encouraging the participation of women and youth to foster trust, national ownership, and diversity in governance, human rights, and reconciliation efforts. The PSC requested the AU Commission to identify and provide technical and financial support to Guinea, especially for the constitutional referendum in September 2025 and the general elections in December 2025. It called on international partners to support Guinea’s transition and expressed appreciation for the hospitality during the PSC mission, reaffirming that it will remain seized of the situation.
