This is part of the resolutions reached at the end of the 66th Ordinary Session of the ECOWAS Commission Authority of Heads of State and Government in Abuja on Sunday, December 15.
The ICIR reports that the decision marks a significant shift in the geopolitical landscape of West Africa.
In the communique read by the President of the ECOWAS Commission, Omar Alieu Touray, the commission noted that it respected the decision of the three countries to exit the community.
However, it announced that the counties would be given a transition period of six months between January 29 and July 29 during which the current negotiations with the ECOWAS mediation team led by the Presidents of Senegal and Togo would continue.
The ECOWAS noted that if during the transition period, the three Sahel countries decide to rejoin the community, they would be readmitted.
The decision is in line with Article 91 of the revised ECOWAS treaties which recognises the sovereignty of every member state.

The authority acknowledges that in accordance with the provisions of Article 91 of the revised ECOWAS treaty, the three countries will officially cease to be members of ECOWAS from 29 January 2025,” the communique noted.
It further disclosed that the authority decided to set the period from 29 January 2025 to 29 July 2025 as a transitional period and to keep ECOWAS doors open to the three countries during the transition period.
