I would like to express my gratitude to all the peace-loving, freedom-loving patriots and pan-Africanists who rallied around the world on Wednesday April 30, 2025 to support our commitment and our vision for a new Burkina Faso and a new Africa, free from imperialism and neo-colonialism. Your active solidarity and this demonstration of sympathy strenghtens our conviction that the fight we are waging for a fairer and more equitable world is justified. We will never bend our backs in the face of adversity; we will stand firm until our peoples are truly emancipated. With you, we are certain that victory over the forces of evil is at hand. Together, in solidarity, we will defeat imperialism and neo-colonialism for a free, dignified and sovereign Africa.

Where are they? Yesterday we were alerted by a rubber boat south of Malta, carrying around 60 people. We and a relative could not reach them any more after 22:00 CEST last night. Authorities were alerted, but did not give answers. Search and rescue for them urgently!

#Tunisia has taken important steps since the Revolution to advance equality. However, there seems to be a tacit social agreement to ask people of diverse sexual orientations & gender identities to hide their true nature. Preliminary findings from my visit: bit.ly/3zM6M2C

The official country visit to #Tunisia continued today. I had the opportunity to meet with the Minister for Women and Girls and her staff and, later, I addressed the Supreme Judiciary Council. 🇹🇳 My preliminary findings will be presented next Friday, June 18. #IESOGI🏳️‍🌈
