which imposed strict economic and financial sanctions on Mali in January &#8211; and is threatening to do likewise to Burkina and Guinea.<\/p>\n<p>Saturday&#8217;s meeting failed to come to a decision on the suspended countries, with the issue set to be addressed at the next <a href=\"https:\/\/ecowas.&lt;br&gt;&lt;\/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;int\/\">ECOWAS<\/a> summit on 3 July.<\/p>\n<p>In a statement, African leaders said they would &#8220;uphold&#8221; the punitive measures imposed on Mali on 9 January but continue talking to the junta in Bamako &#8220;with a view to reaching an agreement to ensure a gradual lifting of the sanctions&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>This, they said, would depend on the junta accelerating the transition to democratic rule.<\/p>\n<p>The military initially said it would hold on to power for five years but after ECOWAS imposed sanctions, the transition was reduced that to two.<\/p>\n<p>ECOWAS says the army must leave office within a maximum of 16 months.<\/p>\n<p>In the statement, the region&#8217;s leaders again demanded Burkina and Guinea come up with &#8220;an acceptable transition timetable&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Both military regimes plan to cling to power there for three years.<\/p>\n<p><a name=\"in-article-p-mid\"><\/a>&#8220;Our objective has always been to find ways to help these countries return to constitutional order,&#8221;
