Niger Just Asked The US To GET OUT of The Country Along Side Its Military...
#niger #usmilitary #westafrica
In a recent development, Niger has asked the United States to withdraw its military presence in the country. This is a significant move, as Niger has housed about 1,000 American troops who play a role in counterterrorism efforts in the region. The Nigerien government, currently led by military leaders, claims the US presence violates their constitution and that the deployment lacked proper authorization. This has thrown US strategy in Africa into disarray, and the US is currently engaged in diplomatic efforts to understand the situation and potentially maintain a presence in Niger. Niger follows other leaders in the Sahel in forging closer ties with Russia, after taking power in military coups.
Only a year ago, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken made his first-ever visit to Niger. The West African nation was praised by him as, quote, “a model of resilience, a model of democracy, and a model of cooperation.“ Five months later, the military overthrew the government in a coup. Niger is now cutting off its military ties with Washington and wants American troops to leave the country. They intend to trail the previous colonial power France, whose soldiers were expelled in December of last year.
