The political landscape of Senegal is set for a significant moment this Friday, July 17, 2026, as former president Macky Sall prepares to arrive in Dakar for a short meeting with his successor, Bassirou Diomaye Faye.
In a brief announcement on Tuesday, Macky Sall shared on his social media platforms that the visit aims to facilitate discussions between the two leaders. While the primary focus revolves around his ambitions for the UN Secretary-General position, the encounter is also expected to address broader governance topics relevant to the region.
The timing of this visit is particularly notable given Macky Sall‘s active diplomatic engagements over recent weeks. His travels have included high-level meetings with international representatives, with a strong emphasis on multilateralism and global governance frameworks.
Among these efforts, he has engaged with diplomats from key nations, including permanent members of the United Nations Security Council, to strengthen support for his candidacy. This visit to Dakar could mark another strategic step in consolidating those international alliances ahead of his formal UN bid.
