Western countries have stolen plenty from Africa including assassinating Great African Leaders and never tried doing right with Africans.
The Army are not junta but the real juntas is western colonialism African youth
revolution is anti colonialism
The United States and Europe are the looters of the country. Also how is it that the United States is supposed to be a "superpower" with all this technology drones etc but they still have terrorist problems? Tells me the United are the problem
Thanks for Nigerien government. Free Africa without any occupied US soldiers base.
Next will be cia bases…
So many Putin's trolls here.
FJBiden effect.
Good news Africa will never develop as long we work with the west because western development is based on getting cheap or not paying for resources and create war in the global south so that thr western army will be deployed in these countries and apse force these countries to pay for it in the name of keeping them safe. Thr partnership is fuck and turn over and fuck what ever is missing
As an American, the sooner you kick out my government, the sooner you can better rebuild your country. God speed.
GREAT . IT WAS A SECRET INVASION, SO MUCH TROOPS? UR CRAZY .THAT WAS AN INVASION…

We don't care how much that based cost, the american should go
Their present doesn't help in tye interrest of the Nigerian people

OKAY WE'RE HERE TO GET AWAY FROM THE USA
Nigeriens prefer to see investors rather than foreign soldiers.
In accordance with the aspirations of its people and the following information:
Denunciation with immediate effect of the agreement relating to the status of military personnel and US civilian employees
Reasons:
Observation of the overflight of the territory by US aircraft which questions the sincerity and relevance of maintaining cooperation.
Since July 26, 2023, decision to suspend unilateral military cooperation invoking article 70-08 of the "Consolidate Appropriation Act" without however withdrawing its troops
No obligation to grant the request for support against terrorist groups
No information on military activities carried out from US military bases and on the equipment deployed nor the civil and military effects
Forced to pay taxes on US military aircraft which cost the Nigerien taxpayer billions of CFA francs;
Illegal, unconstitutional and anti-democratic military presence since the verbal note of July 6, 2012 without consultation of the national representation
Failure to respect the three principles of governance of the country: respect for sovereignty, the choice of partners and the interests of the people
Willingness to cooperate with peace-loving, justice-loving peoples in accordance with the rules of international law
During the second Iraq war, false accusations of having sold uranium to Iraq, the exploitation of which was totally controlled by France with everyone's knowledge, were brought against the government of President Tanja.
Before 2010, there was not a single foreign soldier, nor a single terrorist on the territory, hence the establishment of the correlation between these presences.
AMERICAN JUNTA the foreign looters
Enough is enough,with need to work with partners rather than neo colonialism.
and actually the US was the first to cut the ties or cooperation with Niger at the time of the coup.
