The president also stressed the need for African leaders to ensure that democracy, good governance, and economic institutions worked together.
”We need enhanced international tax cooperation to combat illicit financial flows and ensure that multinationals contribute fairly to our economies.
”We must also foster global economic cooperation to tackle shared challenges and leverage opportunities.
“However, we must also acknowledge the need to take responsibility for our development by undertaking the difficult structural and fiscal reforms required to boost long-term growth,” he added.
