That is very welcome. I want to ensure that the EU is not carrying out any unilateral talks with the government and that it is going through the African Union. It is vitally important that a united front is upheld to show that this situation is unacceptable and that what has to happen is a transition to civilian power to resolve this situation. I also want to ensure that the European Union will support the African Union fully to ensure that happens.
