Dacian Cioloș expressed gratitude to the Democratic Republic of Congo for supporting his candidacy for the International Organization of La Francophonie (OIF). He emphasized the importance of cooperation among member states to ensure a legitimate leadership for the organization. Cioloș highlighted shared values between Romania and Congo, advocating for a collaborative approach rather than competition in selecting the next Secretary General. He also thanked Juliana Lumumba for her commitment to the organization. The election for the new Secretary General is set for November 16 in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, with several candidates in the running.
