Mali’s transition committee
appointed retired army Colonel Bah N’Daw as the nation’s
interim leader, a month after seizing power in a military coup.
Junta leader Assimi Goita will assume the role of vice president, the National Committee for the Salvation of the People said in a statement on its Facebook page on Monday.
N’Daw, a former defense minister, will govern Mali for
a maximum of 18 months,
according to a political charter for the transition negotiated between the junta, political party and civil society leaders earlier this month.
