Touboun: Algeria deploys fighter jets to Niger
Algerian President Abdel Madjid Tebboune revealed that Algeria sent Sukhoi-30 fighter jets to Niger at the end of August in response to a request from the Nigerien forces for support in fighting an attempted coup in Niamey. Tebboune confirmed that this is considered an provocation to Algeria, which will respond in kind if tensions continue. He explained that Niamey experienced armed movements before regaining control. This development comes amid security cooperation between Algeria and Niger, with Niger’s Prime Minister having visited Algeria prior to the events, and the relationship focusing on strengthening security and military cooperation between the two countries. The statements also affirm that Algeria does not intend to abandon its relations with major powers such as Russia, the United States, and China, and considers its multi-faceted relations with these countries to be in line with its national interests.
