Joint statement by HRVP Mogherini and Neven Mimica on the latest developments in The Gambia

Today the will of the Gambian people is being respected and the way for President Adama Barrow cleared. The positive and peaceful outcome of the post-electoral stalemate in The Gambia is the result of extraordinary regional and international coordinated efforts with ECOWAS in the lead.

We confirm our full support to President Barrow and reaffirm the European Union's readiness to assist The Gambia and its people.
