BAMAKO (Reuters) - Mali s transitional government has created working groups with members of West Africa s regional bloc, the African Union and the United Nations to work toward a return to constitutional order, it said on Wednesday. The West African state was hit hard with sanctions last month after the military junta that first seized power in a 2020 coup proposed extending its rule until 2025. Its leaders have thrown out the agreed transition timeline, lashed out at European allies and condemned the measures taken by the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), but the transitional administration s latest statement suggested they may be softening their stance as sanctions start to bite. Leaders of the regional bloc ECOWAS have said they will gradually ease the sanctions, which include border closures and restrictions on financial transactions, if Mali s transitional government proposes an acceptable timetable for elections. ECOWAS last week decided not to impose sanctions
