The African coast remained a file carrying major changes, perhaps the most notable of which was the departure of the French ambassador from Niamey after a tug of war between the coup plotters, and the French leadership. The ambassador arrived in Paris, and the French military presence in Niger is preparing to leave by the end of the year.
Media reports said that General Tiani is leading the country into a security disaster. After the coup, terrorists launched 9 attacks. Western media quoted soldiers within the army that if France leaves the country, Niger will not be able to fight terrorists. The military themselves want the French army to remain. But Tiani refused because he was not interested in the lives of the soldiers or the security of the country. He wants power only for his own benefits – according to the military source.
Political analyst Mohamed Al-Hassan Al-Zubair confirmed that France had a military presence for decades on the African coast, before its exit scenario accelerated after the growing military coups, so it left Mali and Burkina Faso, and now preparing to leave Niger.
Al-Zubair explained that the French military presence in the west African countries was for the purpose of joint cooperation to contain global terrorism, and there is no doubt that the departure of the French will leave a vacant space for international terrorism to exploit.
Al-Zubair points out that any vacant spaces will be filled by the Russians and their unruly military groups like Wagner, and refers to the popular chants and pictures uploaded by demonstrators in Niamey in the wake of the military coup that overthrew President Bazom, stressing that this welcome and this is a dangerous indicator, calling for Russia to exploit these feelings, and perhaps It increased its activity through military terrorist groups as Wagner mercenaries. Al-Zubair confirms that the events in the African coast leading to a return to military coup regimes increase the multiple fears of the spread of terrorism, and may have led to many African countries sliding into chaos.
