Descriptions

Ibrahim Ikassa Maïga is a member of the strategic committee of M5-RFP (Mouvement du 5 juin – Rassemblement des forces patriotiques), which played a key role in the overthrow of President Keita. As Minister of Refoundation since June 2021, Ibrahim Ikassa Maïga was entrusted with planning the National Consultations for Refoundation (Assises nationales de la Refondation, ANR) announced by Prime Minister Choguel Maïga. Contrary to the timetable for reform and elections previously agreed with the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) in line with the Transition Charter, the ANR were announced by the Transition Government as a pre-reform process and a precondition to the organisation of the elections scheduled for 27 February 2022. As announced by Choguel Maïga, the ANR were then postponed several times and the elections delayed. The ANR, which were eventually held in December 2021, were boycotted by multiple stakeholders. On the basis of the final recommendations of the ANR, the Transition Government presented a new timetable providing for the holding of presidential elections in December 2025, thus allowing the Transition Authorities to stay in power for more than five years. Following a revised timetable presented in June 2022, providing for the holding of presidential elections in March 2024, the Transition Government announced on 21 September 2023 a further postponement of the elections. On 25 January 2024, the Transition Government denounced the Agreement for Peace and Reconciliation in Mali and declared its immediate termination. Since that date, there has been a significant increase in the authoritarian constraints imposed by the Transition Government. ECOWAS adopted individual sanctions against the Transition Authorities (including Ibrahim Ikassa Maïga) in November 2021 for their delay in organising the elections and the completion of the political transition of Mali. ECOWAS underlined that the Transition Authorities have used the need to implement reforms as a pretext to justify the extension of the political transition of Mali and to maintain themselves in power without democratic elections. On 3 July 2022, ECOWAS decided to maintain those individual sanctions. In his position as Minister of Refoundation, Ibrahim Ikassa Maïga is obstructing and undermining the successful completion of the political transition of Mali, in particular by obstructing and undermining the holding of elections and the handover of power to elected authorities.

EU Council Official Journal Sanctioned Entities,

Ibrahim Ikassa Maïga est membre du comité stratégique du M5-RFP (Mouvement du 5 juin — Rassemblement des forces patriotiques), qui a joué un rôle clé dans le renversement du président Keita. En tant que ministre de la refondation depuis juin 2021, Ibrahim Ikassa Maïga s’est vu confier la planification des Assises nationales de la Refondation (ANR) annoncées par le Premier ministre Choguel Maïga. Contrairement à ce que prévoyait le calendrier des réformes et des élections arrêté précédemment en accord avec la Communauté économique des États de l’Afrique de l’Ouest (CEDEAO) conformément à la charte de la transition, les ANR ont été annoncées par le gouvernement de transition comme un processus préalable aux réformes et une condition préalable à l’organisation des élections prévues pour le 27 février 2022. Comme l’a annoncé Choguel Maïga, les ANR ont ensuite été reportées à plusieurs reprises et les élections retardées. Les ANR, qui se sont finalement tenues en décembre 2021, ont été boycottées par de nombreuses parties prenantes. Sur la base des recommandations finales des ANR, le gouvernement de transition a présenté un nouveau calendrier qui prévoyait la tenue de l’élection présidentielle en décembre 2025, ce qui permettait aux autorités de transition de rester au pouvoir pendant plus de cinq ans. À la suite de la présentation d’un calendrier révisé en juin 2022, prévoyant la tenue de l’élection présidentielle en mars 2024, le gouvernement de transition a annoncé, le 21 septembre 2023, un nouveau report de l’élection. Le 25 janvier 2024, le gouvernement de transition a dénoncé l’accord pour la paix et la réconciliation au Mali et a prononcé sa résiliation immédiate. Depuis cette date, les contraintes autoritaires imposées par le gouvernement de transition ont considérablement augmenté. La CEDEAO a adopté, en novembre 2021, des sanctions individuelles à l’encontre des autorités de transition (y compris Ibrahim Ikassa Maïga) au motif qu’elles ont retardé l’organisation des élections et l’achèvement de la transition politique du Mali. La CEDEAO a souligné que les autorités de transition avaient utilisé la nécessité de mettre en œuvre des réformes comme prétexte pour justifier la prolongation de la transition politique du Mali et pour se maintenir au pouvoir sans élections démocratiques. Le 3 juillet 2022, la CEDEAO a décidé de maintenir ces sanctions individuelles. En tant que ministre de la refondation, Ibrahim Ikassa Maïga entrave et compromet la réussite de la transition politique du Mali, notamment en entravant et en compromettant la tenue d’élections et la passation de pouvoir aux autorités élues.
