高级别代表团在马里的巴马科会面讨论该国北部的危机。来自联合国、非盟和西非国家经济共同体的代表会见了马里领导人以制定出一个方案。
Mali's temporary president Dioncounda Traore urged representatives to act immediately to deal with the situation. He promised that the government would cooperate and work together with forces assisting in ousting the Islamic militants from the north.

Mali fell into a crisis in March, twenty-twelve, after the military ousted President Amadou Toumani Toure. Shortly after, Islamic militants with ties to al-Qaida seized control of the north. The militants want to enforce a severe version of Islamic law there. Recent reports from the north have documented human rights abuses by the militants. They perform public executions, use children as soldiers and force women into sex work. Women in many towns are forced to cover their faces and are banned from appearing in public with men. Smoking and music are also prohibited.
2012年3月，在军方将总统阿马杜·图马尼·杜尔（Amadou Toumani Toure）赶下台后，马里陷入危机。不久后，与基地组织有联系的伊斯兰武装分子获得北部控制权。这些武装分子想要在该地执行一种非常苛刻版本的伊斯兰法。最近来自北部的报告记录了武装分子侵犯人权的行为。他们执行公开处决，使用儿童兵，迫使妇女从事性工作。许多城镇的妇女被迫遮脸并禁止与男人出现在公共场合。吸烟和音乐也在禁止之列。
