AGP Executive Report
Last update: 5 hours agoMining and Energy: Aura Energy’s feasibility study puts the Tiris uranium project in northern Mauritania on a path to a December investment decision, with first production targeted for 2028. The plan estimates US$350 million in development costs, but funding is not yet secured. Western Sahara: The UN General Assembly’s Fourth Committee adopted its annual resolution by 152 votes to two, with seven abstentions. It references Security Council Resolution 2797 and calls on Morocco, Algeria, Mauritania and the Polisario to engage in the political process in good faith; the vote does not settle the territory’s status. Migration: At least 12 people died when a migrant boat sank off Gambia. Tighter patrols off Mauritania, Morocco and Senegal have pushed departures farther south, lengthening an already dangerous sea route. Health Cooperation: China’s naval hospital ship treated more than 7,500 patients and carried out over 30 operations during its Mauritania visit before sailing on to other West African countries. Human Rights: Reuters documented the case of a gay Mauritanian man protected from deportation to Mauritania by a US immigration judge, but reportedly deported to Eswatini; he later returned to Mauritania and crossed into Senegal.
