Nouakchott, January 14 (APS) – The Senegalese and Mauritian Prime Ministers, Ousmane Sonko and Moctar Ould Diay, committed, Tuesday, in Nouakchott, to removing the obstacles that the private sectors of Mauritania and Senegal face in wanting to invest on either side of the border of the two countries.
They made this commitment during a “Mauritania-Senegal public-private sector round table”, during a working visit by the head of the Senegalese government to Mauritania.
”In our relationship, there must be many Mauritanians in Senegal and many Senegalese in Mauritania […] All barriers must be lifted,” Ousmane Sonko argued during this meeting organized by the Investment Promotion Agency in Mauritania and the National Agency responsible for the promotion of investments and major works in Senegal.
”We call on the private sector of Mauritania and that of Senegal to work hand in hand by increasing public-private partnerships, joint ventures […] The Senegalese private sector will be welcome in Mauritania. The Mauritanian government will take all necessary measures to remove all obstacles,” assured Mocar Ould Diay.
