The West African bloc ECOWAS has urged Guinea-Bissau's military-led government to unconditionally release all detained political figures.

In a statement at the end of a summit of heads of state in Sierra Leone, it said this would “bolster the credibility” of the country’s transition process.

The release would include freeing opposition leader and former prime minister, Domingos Simões Pereira, who was jailed again earlier this month.

He has been accused of economic crimes and involvement in an ⁠alleged coup attempt in October 2025, which he denies.
