Senegalese President Bassirou Diomaye Faye paid a historic state visit to Guinea-
Bissau, where he reaffirmed Senegal’s commitment to supporting its neighbor in
strengthening security and stability. Welcomed by President Umaro Sissoco
Embaló, the visit included bilateral meetings focusing on regional cooperation in
defense, education, health, agriculture, and trade. Both leaders highlighted the
strong ties between their countries and expressed shared visions on major
challenges facing the region, including ECOWAS disintegration and climate
change. Faye’s visit—his third in a year—was marked by symbolism and historic
significance, culminating in his receiving Guinea-Bissau’s highest honor, the
Amílcar Cabral medal.
