The UN, AU, Economic Community of Central African States (ECCAS) and EU on Friday welcomed the final result of the second round of the presidential election in the Central African Republic (CAR).

The result was announced by CAR Transitional Constitutional Court on Tuesday.

The organisations in a joint statement in New York congratulated the President-elect, Mr Faustin-Archange Touadéra, and expressed their support for his determination to further the efforts to promote dialogue and national reconciliation.

The UN, AU, ECCAS and EU then paid tribute to Mr Anicet-Georges Dologuélé, Touadéra’s rival and to the people of CAR who demonstrated their commitment to find durable solutions in support of peace, reconciliation and economic and social development in the African republic.

They welcomed the essential role played by the Transitional Authority in support of a return to peace.

They reiterated their commitment to continued efforts to support the completion of the transition, including through the holding of the second round of legislative elections.

The organisations recalled that the people of the CAR had high expectations that the completion of the transition would bring real change.

They underlined that the new authorities of CAR had an important opportunity and responsibility to ensure further progress toward peace and security, justice and reconciliation, and social cohesion, as well as reconstruction and development.

The international community, they added, would continue to lend its support to the efforts of the new CAR authorities through responsible partnership. (NAN)
