VOICED: Mali tiene nuevo presidente

Dioncunda Traoré was appointed as the interim president of Mali, marking the start of a transitional period following the withdrawal of the military junta. The main focus of the transitional authorities is to resolve the crisis in northern Mali, which is occupied by Tuareg rebels and armed Islamist groups. Traoré called for peace and urged rebels to engage in dialogue and cease hostilities. He plans to appoint a prime minister to form a national unity government. The new president has strong public support, especially from the youth, and a meeting in Burkina Faso will define the transition's modality.
