The website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation published a statement regarding the situation in Niger.
According to the Russian Foreign Ministry, Moscow supports the mediation efforts of the Economic Community of West African Countries (ECOWAS) aimed at restoring constitutional order in Niger through political and diplomatic dialogue with the new Nigerian authorities.
At the same time, the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs warns that the decision taken by ECOWAS to prepare an armed invasion of Niger could eventually lead to a protracted confrontation in this African country. In addition, the Russian Foreign Ministry sees the risk of a sharp destabilization of the situation in the Sahara-Sahel region as a whole.
