A committee appointed by the military junta that seized power on August 18, toppling president Ibrahim Boubacar Keita, selected Ndaw, a 70-year-old retired colonel, as interim president.

Ndaw is due to lead a transition government for a maximum of 18 months before organising national elections.

In a speech, Ndaw said he would strive for "a stable, calm and successful transition, in the agreed conditions and timeframe".

"Mali has given me everything. I am happy to be its submissive slave, willing to do everything for it to return to full constitutional legality, with elected authorities and legitimate representatives," he declared.

The former defence minister also promised to uphold Mali's international commitments: "The transition period which begins will not dispute any international undertaking by Mali, nor the agreements signed by the government."

He also promised to continue a "merciless war" against "terrorist forces and organised crime" and called for a moment of silence to honour fallen troops – Malians, French and UN.

ECOWAS to maintain sanctions

West African states will uphold sanctions on Mali until it appoints a civilian prime minister, the leader of the ECOWAS regional bloc leader said on Friday.

The 15-nation Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) slapped sanctions on Mali after the coup.

The sanctions "will be lifted when a civilian prime minister is named", said ECOWAS Commission President Jean-Claude Kassi Brou.
