Niamey Unrest: Niger Accuses France
Niger accused France of involvement in recent events in Niamey, attempting to destabilize the country, and confirmed that it has prepared documents regarding the assault that took place from the night of August 28 to 29. The Nigerien Council of Ministers, chaired by President Mohamed Bazoum, attended a meeting to discuss these events. It considered that the operation, carried out by elements of a special intelligence battalion, was supported and trained by the French regime led by President Macron. The statement indicated that these moves are part of ongoing efforts to undermine sovereignty and exploit the country's resources, affirming that Nigerien forces are committed to defending the homeland and countering sabotage attempts. Niger also expressed gratitude to Algeria, Russia, and other friendly countries that sent military support, including Su-30 fighter jets, to strengthen the Nigerien army's capabilities in facing security challenges. Niger emphasized that it has no intention of declaring war on any country and reserves the right to pursue international legal measures against anyone found involved in the aggression.
