The secretary re-emphasized the United States’ support for greater African representation in international institutions and congratulated the African Union on achieving permanent membership in the G20. 

“I think this reflects the vital and increasingly close partnership between the United States and the AU, and it also reflects the critical role of the AU plays not only regionally but around the world. That was further reflected in the fact that the AU was welcomed into the G20 just this year” Blinken said.

AU Chairperson Faki and Blinken agreed to enhance mutual support for sustainable democratic transitions and work together to promote stability, food security, climate mitigation, pandemic preparedness, and good governance within the African region.

“In fact you launch this development between the United States and African Union and of the priorities of a partnership of this self-described vision, security, democracy development and climate change. And this one is very fruitful. We want to expand and deepen this partnership” Moussa Faki Mahamat said.
