As part of resolving the crisis that the country is experiencing since the coup d’état of July 26, 2023, the Niger junta has decided to accept a mediation proposal from Algeria.
“The Algerian government has received, through the Nigerien Ministry of Foreign Affairs, an acceptance of Algerian mediation aimed at promoting a political solution to the crisis in Niger,” the Algerian Ministry of Foreign Affairs reported in a press release yesterday, Monday.
According to our information, the Algerian President, Abdelmadjid Tebboune, has instructed his head of diplomacy, Ahmed Attaf, “to go to Niamey as soon as possible to begin discussions (…) with all the stakeholders”.
For the moment, the military regime in Niamey has not reacted to this information.
Since the coup d’état of July 26, the deposed president has been sequestered in his presidential residence with his wife and son. A situation deplored by Mohamed Bazoum’s lawyers who announced the filing of a complaint in Niamey once morest the perpetrators of the coup. This complaint, with the constitution of a civil party, consulted on Monday by AFP, targets General Tiani and “all the others”, for “attack and conspiracy once morest the authority of the State, crimes and offenses committed by civil servants and arrests and arbitrary confinement”.
