Des efforts sont en cours pour apporter l’aide nécessaire à ces enfants vulnérables, mais les obstacles à l’accès humanitaire et les déficits en matière de ressources aggravent la situation. Face à ces défis grandissants, je tiens à saluer les pays voisins qui ont ouvert leurs frontières et accueilli les personnes déplacées, dans un esprit de solidarité panafricaine.
