The nation is in a transitional time. An ad-hoc committee prepared a pact to form a transitional government. Their goals are to hold Supreme Court elections, organize legislative and presidential elections, and promulgate the new Constitution (adopted in 2001). Most Guineans support this transitional government and its effort to return to the rule of law and rebuild political institutions. it is uncertain how long this process will take and whether the transitional government has the capacity to accomplish its stated goals.
