The European Union on Wednesday slammed any moves to subvert democracy in Niger, after disgruntled members of the presidential guard detained the country’s leader.
“Very concerned by the current events in Niamey. The EU condemns any attempt to destabilise democracy and threaten the stability of Niger,” EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell posted online.
Borrell said the EU “associates itself” with a statement from West African bloc ECOWAS decrying an attempt to seize power.
