Thank you.
With the help of God and all our friends, that can be done. You see how easy it was to recapture all the regions that had fallen into the hands of terrorists. Since January 11, practically all the regions aside from the Kidal region, have been brought back under Mali's protection. And it is only February. The Malian government has set July 31 as the deadline. Since everything that has been accomplished so far took less than a month, we hope that, in less than two months, Mali will have recovered its territorial integrity. That's all.
The coup d'état you are talking about is what interrupted the election. The election was planned for April 29, 2012, but the coup d'état was carried out. All the elements needed for the election are already in place. However, we cannot have an election if even an inch of our territory is in the hands of terrorists. We have to wait for the whole territory to be liberated, so that all Malians can participate in the election and choose their leaders.
