\u25aa\ufe0fThe strengthening of bilateral and multilateral ties globally and further consolidating The Gambia\u2019s diplomatic engagements.<\/p>\n

\u25aa\ufe0fAdvocacy for human rights, transitional justice, rule of law, and democratic governance, which enhanced the country\u2019s international image following the 2017 political transition.<\/p>\n

The Ministry expresses its deep appreciation for Dr. Tangara\u2019s dedicated service and unwavering commitment to the country. His contribution to The Gambia\u2019s foreign policy and global partnerships has been both transformative and enduring.<\/p>\n

We extend our heartfelt contributions, and best wishes to H.E. Dr. Mamadou Tangara as he embarks on this new and prestigious chapter of his diplomatic career with the African Union.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
