The National Committee for the Salvation of the People (French: Comité national pour le salut du peuple, CNSP) was the ruling military junta of Mali from 2020 to 2021. It seized power during the 2020 Malian coup d'état[1] and was formally dissolved by Interim President Bah Ndaw in 2021.[2] However, the military junta has effectively remained in power since then as a transitional government under the leadership of Interim President Colonel Assimi Goïta.[3]
