Address by President Paul Kagame at the Opening Ceremony of the 31st Summit of the African Union, Nouakchott, Mauritania
Let me start by thanking our brother, His Excellency, Mohamed Ould Abdel Aziz, and the Government and people of Mauritania, for hosting this Summit.
We have appreciated the good facilities and organisation. The development of Nouakchott is plain to see, and the warm hospitality from Mauritanians has made us feel at home. It is no wonder this country is known as the Land of a Thousand Poets.
We note that His Excellency, President Julius Maada Bio of Sierra Leone, is participating in a Summit for the first time. We congratulate you and welcome you.
