Summary
An unidentified speaker said the purpose of a recent trip was to review work with Central African partners, MINUSCA and United Nations colleagues and to prepare for the future, noting security gains and ongoing support by MINUSCA and bilateral partners for elections under secure, inclusive and transparent conditions.
Speaker 1, an unidentified speaker, said the purpose of the trip was to review work completed with Central African partners, local authorities, MINUSCA and United Nations colleagues and to prepare for the future. “Le but du voyage c'est de faire le point de tout le travail qui avait été accompli … et de préparer l'avenir,” the speaker said (original French quote).
The speaker highlighted progress in the Central African Republic on security and on strengthening the presence of the state, saying, “Il y a eu des progrès en République centrafricaine, qu'il s'agisse des progrès en matière sécuritaire, qu'il s'agisse du renforcement de la présence de l'État.” (There have been improvements in security and in strengthening state presence.)
On elections, the speaker said that a great deal of work has been and continues to be carried out by MINUSCA, United Nations colleagues and bilateral partners to prepare and support the process. “S'agissant des élections, beaucoup de travail a été fait et continue d'être fait par la MINUSCA, un collègue des Nations unies, par le soutien aussi des partenaires bilatéraux pour préparer ou soutenir la préparation des élections … et faire en sorte que cette consultation se déroule dans les meilleures conditions possibles de sécurité, d'inclusivité, de transparence,” the speaker said (original French quote; translation above).
The remarks do not specify dates, named officials, or financial details for the support described; those details were not provided in the transcript. The speaker described the trip as a stock-taking and planning visit rather than announcing a new policy or a formal decision. No votes or formal actions were recorded in the remarks.
Next steps were not stated; the speaker framed the visit as part of ongoing preparation and cooperation among MINUSCA, United Nations colleagues and bilateral partners toward ensuring secure, inclusive and transparent elections in the Central African Republic.
