France denies provoking Niger soldiers
French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barré denied Niger's accusations that France is inciting a rebellion among soldiers there, affirming that such allegations are baseless falsehoods and that France had neither the intention nor the means to incite a rebellion in Niger. This comes a week after a failed revolt by defecting soldiers in Niger, and the ruling military council—supported by Russia—accused France of collusion with the rebels, which Paris completely denied. The events indicate escalating tensions between Niger and France, with the Nigerien government continuing to accuse Paris of supporting armed groups, but France insists it is not meddling in Niger’s internal affairs.
