The government of Ismail Ould Bedde Ould Cheikh Sidiya was the 15th government of the Islamic Republic of Mauritania, in office between 9 August 2019 and 6 August 2020.[1] [2] It was a coalition between the Union for the Republic and the Union for Democracy and Progress, whose leader Naha Mint Mouknass was the only member representing the party.
The government was formed after former General Mohamed Ould Ghazouani won the 2019 presidential election, thus deciding to appoint a new government as such a move is seen as a major indicator of Ghazouani's governance plans.[3]
Many of the new ministers were considered to be close to the previous president Mohamed Ould Abdel Aziz.[4]
The list of members was announced by the Presidency of the Republic on 9 August, taking position immediately.[1] [5]
