Following the anti-government and anti-insecurity outbreak earlier this week, the Presidential Transitional Council (CPT) and the government made joint promises and issued numerous explanations aimed at reducing popular tension and attempting to reassure the population. "We hear your cries, we understand your anguish, and we remain firm in our determination to respond to the people's legitimate demands. The country is going through a difficult period where insecurity threatens the life and well-being of every citizen, but the fight continues unabated to restore order, peace, and stability throughout the country.
For several months, various strategic actions have been taken to combat insecurity. The military and police operations already underway have helped neutralize numerous bandits or prevented them from fleeing the country.
The new strategies implemented by law enforcement include the use of drones and other modern equipment that increase response capacity. Security is not something that can be achieved with a single turn of a wrench; it requires method, patience, coordination among all stakeholders, and the active participation of the population.
We understand the population's despair and impatience and recognize that there is still a long way to go. But our commitment will not waver. The CPT and the Government are redoubling their efforts to ensure that every family can return to a dignified life, so that every citizen can return home without fear or anxiety.
We ask every citizen to remain vigilant, so as not to fall into the trap of manipulation and all forms of disinformation that can create confusion. The right to protest is a constitutional right, but we encourage the population to remain vigilant to prevent gangs and other individuals with malicious intentions from infiltrating the movement to sow unrest [...]"
