Congratulating the people of Senegal on the success of the multi-party electoral process.

Summary

Congratulates the people of the Republic of Senegal on their multi-party elections of March 19, 2000. Urges the Economic Community Of Western African States to follow Senegal's lead and make efforts to promote democratic reforms and prevent future conflicts. Calls upon: (1) Senegal's newly elected President Wade to involve all Senegalese to accept the election results and move the country forward; (2) all factions within the Secessionist Movement of Democratic Forces in the Casamance (MFDC) to commit to a cessation of hostilities and create stability for its people; and (3) President Wade to continue the peace initiative started by President Diouf with MFDC. Recognizes Senegal as one of the first African states to adopt a multi-party system in the early 1980's and as a nation of democracy on a continent of one-party states and military dictatorships.
