US lifts sanctions on senior Malian officials
The US Treasury Department has lifted sanctions on three senior Malian military officials, including Defense Minister Sadio Camara and military officers Alou Boi Diarra and Adama Bagayoko. The sanctions relief represents a notable shift in US policy toward Mali's military-led government, which has been in power following a coup. This development signals a potential recalibration of American diplomatic engagement with the Sahel nation.
