Addis Ababa, August 2, 2013 – On July 29, 2013, the Conclusions of the Summit of Heads of State and Government of the Economic Community of Central African States (ECCAS), the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), and the Commission of the Gulf of Guinea (CGG) on Maritime Safety and Security in the Gulf of Guinea, which took place in Yaoundé, Cameroon, on June 24-25, 2013, were at the heart of the Peace and Security Council (PSC) of the African Union (AU) during its 387th meeting, held at the Ministerial level.

The PSC commended the Heads of State and Government of the ECCAS, the ECOWAS, and the CGG for their historic approach aimed at boosting maritime safety and security in African Maritime Domain.
Welcoming with great satisfaction the activities of the Yaoundé Summit, the Ministers called upon the ECCAS, the ECOWAS, the CGG, and other Regional Economic Communities (RECs) in the continent to elaborate and adopt regional strategies in line with the AU 2050 AIM-Strategy for the sake of strengthening the security and safety of African Maritime Domain.

The PSC thus reiterated the pertinence of the 2050 AIM-Strategy as a very innovative and comprehensive tool that will undoubtedly contribute to advance Africa’s agenda in the challenging waves leading to a safe, secured and stable African Maritime Domain, and guaranteeing therefore a sustainable Blue Economy and Blue Growth referred to by the Council as “a new frontline of Africa's renaissance.” (To review the full Communiqué, please Click http://pages.au.int/maritime/events/communique-peace-and-security-counci...)
