In Mauritania, the Mauritanian Parliament has approved the government's program for the next five years. Presented by the new Prime Minister during this special session, the document shows the electoral commitments of the new Mauritanian President Mohamed Ould Ghazouani during the presidential election last June.

Adopted by the overwhelming majority of elected officials, the Mauritanian government's program for the next five years focuses on consolidating national unity and building the rule of law. This is one of the commitments of Mauritanian President Mohamed Ould Ghazouani.

The Prime Minister reminded him to parliamentarians. " This program is particularly aimed at anything that can promote and strengthen national unity," said Ismael Ould Bodé Ould Cheikh Sidiya . For us, national unity is the reform of justice, unity is to offer all citizens the best living conditions. National unity is educating and caring for Mauritanians, reassuring all citizens so that they live this citizenship with dignity. "

The Mauritanian Prime Minister also reaffirmed the government's determination to work to diversify the national economy and promote good governance.

But the Prime Minister's optimism is far from being shared by the opposition. " The crisis of trust between the different political and economic actors is profound. The national economy collapses and is unable to meet the vital needs of the people, "said Khalilou Ould Dede , Union of Forces of Progress. He is one of 19 opposition parliamentarians who voted against the government's program.

A program validated by 149 deputies out of 157.
