The transitional president of Gabon, who removed the previous leader of the country at the end of August, met with his counterpart from Congo.
Gabon’s transitional president, who ousted the leader of the central African country at the end of August, received a show of support from the neighbouring Republic of Congo on Sunday 1 October 2023 after he met his counterpart, aiming to improve relations and ease Gabon’s isolation.
The election result was branded a fraud by the opposition and the military coup leaders, who had also accused his regime of widespread corruption and bad governance. “It is also to ease the sanctions… we hope to once again take our place among the nations,” Oligui said.

The Congo president did not address reporters after the talks, but his Foreign Minister, Jean-Claude Gakosso, hailed Oligui as “a man of humility and reconciliation.”“I think that the Gabonese should support him and, aside from the Gabonese, the Congolese. Also, our brothers in central Africa”, he told reporters.
