Canada has taken decisive action following the attempted coup in Niger, West Africa, by suspending direct development assistance to the country’s government.
The military coup, which occurred on July 26, led to the ousting of Niger’s democratically elected President Mohamed Bazoum and his cabinet. This marks the eighth military takeover in West and Central Africa within a span of less than three years.
Canada’s suspension of direct budgetary support to the Government of Niger reflects the nation’s firm stance against the coup and its commitment to supporting the restoration of constitutional order.
The international community is rallying behind the efforts of ECOWAS (Economic Community of West African States) in mediating and working towards the prompt reinstatement of the democratically elected government in Niger. The goal is to ensure that the constitutional order is swiftly restored and that Niger returns to a stable and democratic path.
