Niger Gives the US and Nigeria 48 Hours to Withdraw Their Ambassadors

Niger demands that the United States and Nigeria withdraw their ambassadors from the country within 48 hours, according to TASS.

Earlier, the capital Niamey made similar demands to Germany and France. According to AFP, France has acknowledged Niger's request to expel its ambassador. At the same time, the publication cites a source from the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs, noting that the current government in Niger (due to being revolutionary) does not have the authority to make such a request.
