Africa/Security situation in Niger: Burkina Faso and Mali stand firm

Burkina Faso, Mali, and Guinea, three countries currently under military-led governments, have issued a strong warning against any potential military intervention in Niger aimed at reinstating President Mohamed Bazoum, who was ousted in a coup. In a joint statement, the leaders of these three states expressed their categorical opposition to this initiative, labeling it a “declaration of war” against their respective nations.

These neighboring countries have clearly stated their disapproval of any military intervention in Niger that could further disrupt the stability of the region and lead to increased tensions between nations.

They emphasize that any resolution of the situation in Niger should be approached through diplomatic and peaceful means, favoring dialogue and regional cooperation.

The situation in Niger is closely monitored by these three countries, who seek to preserve peace and security in the Sahel region.

They underscore the importance of supporting mediation processes and finding lasting political solutions to internal conflicts, rather than resorting to military force.

By issuing this warning, Burkina Faso, Mali, and Guinea aim to prevent any escalation of tensions in the region and promote peaceful approaches to resolving disputes and political crises that may arise in neighboring countries.

They also call on the international community to support these efforts for peace and stability in the Sahel.
