"Parliament has made known its deep concern with regard to the political situation in Mali, shaken by the Tuareg rebellion and the military coup on 21 March. The ECOWAS intervention and the designation of President Compaoré as mediator have allowed constitutional order to be restored in the country, and I am very pleased about that. On 6 April, a framework agreement to emerge from the crisis was signed and allowed ECOWAS to lift its sanctions from 10 April. Investment from Europe, and from France in particular, is strong in this country, with which we have always maintained close relations. Indeed, the European Union is investing EUR 560 million in Mali to accompany its development efforts, EUR 50 million within the framework of the strategy for development and security in the Sahel and EUR 9 million to fund assistance for refugees and displaced persons in northern Mali. However, the situation has not been fully resolved and we must remain vigilant with regard to the risk of the humanitarian and food situation deteriorating, which could lead to a serious crisis in a region that has already been weakened by the threat of terrorism and organised crime."@en1
