Niger evacuates employees of European Union

Niger’s leaders kicked out 15 people from the European Union‘s mission to help them improve.

The Interior Minister of the country, Brig Gen Mohamed Toumba, said that the people came back to Niamey on different flights on January 24th without telling the government.

He said they were forced to leave Niger a few days later on 26 January.

Niger has been controlled by a group of military leaders since July when they took over from the elected President Mohamed Bazoum. Shortly after that, the EU said they would punish the leaders of the junta with sanctions.

Niger says that the Eucap mission, which included 120 security officers helping Niger’s forces, ended in December after more than ten years of working together.

The junta wants to have less connections with European countries and wants to start having more connections with countries like Russia and Iran.

Niger has been saying things against the Western countries. People are now wondering what will happen to the US soldiers who are at a drone base in Agadez.
