ECOWAS faces severe challenges with member departures, security threats, and external economic pressures.
ECOWAS, a 50-year-old economic bloc in West Africa, is facing significant challenges, including the departure of Mali, Burkina Faso, and Niger.
This fracture has damaged ECOWAS's credibility and regional influence, leading to increased smuggling and trade disruptions.
The bloc also struggles with security issues, such as jihadist activities in the Sahel and Lake Chad regions, and faces internal fragmentation and democratic backsliding.
Additionally, US trade tariffs and aid cuts complicate ECOWAS's efforts to maintain stability.
