Foreign Policy
Togo pursues a pragmatic, multi-directional foreign policy. It maintains close ties with France while cultivating relationships with China, India, and the Gulf states. Lome has positioned itself as a neutral ground for regional mediation.
Togo is active in ECOWAS, though it has sometimes diverged from the bloc's hardline stance on the Sahelian juntas, preferring dialogue over sanctions. The country has sought to mediate between ECOWAS and the Alliance of Sahel States. Togo also contributes troops to UN peacekeeping missions.
