Ghana and Burkina Faso have signed several draft agreements and memoranda of understanding (MoUs) aimed at strengthening bilateral cooperation across multiple sectors, following the conclusion of the 13th Session of the Joint Commission for Cooperation in Ouagadougou on Friday.
The high-level meeting brought together Ghana’s Foreign Minister Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa and his Burkinabe counterpart, Karamoko Jean-Marie Traoré. Discussions focused on expanding trade, reinforcing security collaboration, and enhancing diplomatic ties amid growing regional instability.
The session formalised outcomes from a preparatory experts’ meeting held in October 2025, paving the way for renewed commitments between the two neighbouring countries.
Officials said the agreements are intended to broaden multifaceted cooperation while reinforcing the long-standing bonds of friendship and fraternity between Accra and Ouagadougou.
The Joint Commission underscores the shared determination of both governments to inject new momentum into bilateral relations, particularly at a time when security and economic pressures in the region demand closer solidarity and sustained consultation.
