- Niger's PM Ali Mahaman Lamine Zeine stated in a Washington Post interview that the military junta cut ties with the US because it threatened sanctions. Niger announced in mid-March that it was ending military cooperation with the US shortly after a delegation left the country
Niger has been a key base for counter-terrorism operations in West Africa, with a major US drone base near Agadez city. PM Zeine said that Assistant Secretary of State Molly Phee had threatened sanctions if Niger sold its uranium to Iran.

It's all about USA interests. They were there in Niger to control resources no to fight terrorists. To fight terrorism is the oldest trick in the USA military history.
Control Resources & Fight Off Terrorists go hand in hand.
The Resource is Uranium and security and control in necessary.
China & Russia in Africa is all about their interests. Having Interests and protecting them is no a sinister thing.
They are the terrorists!
@joemosely9383 Those two things go together if you are a reliable partner but for US they are only interested in what is in our soil so they create and sponsor terrorist in order to loot resources for free.
@joemosely9383 The differences are that the USA wants to take those resources and if you dessagre the USA will blackmail and sanctions you. It's the USAs way or the hard way. We all know that.
The difference is that the USA arms and finances those terrorists groups indirectly . it creates the terrorism to justify its military presence . If lybia had not been destroyed there wouldn't have been terrorists threats to Niger. Nato is supposed to be about North Atlantic countries so why did they intervene in lybia .
The USA's interest was never in accordance with that of Niger . the USA invited itself without being called .@@joemosely9383
This bond is unbreakable! Kudos to these two men for valuing their friendship and remaining honest to each other!
What a humiliating turn of events
"Democratic principles"😂Like collective punishment of a whole population and mass starvation? Democratic priciples all right. 😂
More like "economic bullying"
Neither country should be over in Africa or any other country unless invited and it should be a reciprocal relationship
Niger has the right to deny the US access, but the US has the right to deny Niger the economic aid it provides and sanction the country from using US banking.
Usa feel comfortable with all the money they can buy these countries but there will be time where all that mean nothing
What do they buy in these countries? 🤣 They are pumping out resources, wake up
Africa: Good-bye, United States, welcome in, Russia, China and Iran.
Anyone out there must know that when you come to africa come with respect and know that im your boss when you are in my country.
More like a host
@@bourbonlover7158 Not host, more like boss. I'm your boss when you are in my country, period. The good thing is that, American and French are invited and can continue to invest and make profit in that country, but not lose money with armies there.
A lesson for Nigerians to copy.
They kicked out te feenxh and started selling its resources for market value and now the #1 fastest growing economy in yhe entire world
@RUTHLESSambition5
Are you serious. You 🤡.
Niger uranium is some of the most expensive in the world to extract. Now their only customer, France is free from their contracts and buy much cheaper uranium on the world market.
ruZZians and Wagnerites will take the bulk of the gold from gold mines minus the cut for the junta leader.
And no one will help them develop their oil reserves. Especially now. It's not in ruZZian interest. By the way. ruZZian expertise in the oil business is greatly lacking. Thus the reason ruZZia is/was so dependent on western countries.
I initially supported US in Africa, but we have never left our colonial behavior and that right there is a fundamental flaw in our foreign policies
We need a complete overhaul in our attitude towards what America should present to the world
We say one thing and do a 180 on actions and that is the signal of hypocritical, disingenuous behaviors!
Clean out the state department, they are not functioning for the benefit of our country!
America has nothing to offer other than building military 🪖 bases.... policing the world. No business or development model. Build a base in your country with a top secret agenda. The only benefit they offer is IMF loans..... they have been on this same shit for over 80 years, from their bases they influenced election to install puppet president for absolute control of resources.
To combat the Islamic wave sweeping across the Sahel with terrorism is not colonial behavior!
China & Russia are running the same play, just without the historical baggage of the Europeans. Nobody wants to be in Africa jus to be in Africa.
Niger has survived on US aid. I do agree the US should leave Niger, but it also should cut all aid.
@@danielmartin7838don't forget almost all countries in sahel region are majorly muslims.
Prime Minister was saying all the right things, until the last statement 🙄😒
why would they help??, the more problem africa has the more benefit for u.s
Democratic principles - What a drama! 🤣😅
African governments reserve themselves the right to have the final say as far as who will buy Africa's natural resources is concerned.
They are tied on you better just pack up and get back home please Americans 🤔
Left 1 master for another 😂
There's nothing wrong with that; for when you convert you shamefully leave satan (the father of all evil) to proudly join GOD ❤
Russia has no history of invading or exploiting Africa. None whatsoever. They kicked out France and now they are the fastest growing economy in the entire world
@@raymondmentor4924😂😂😂 great response
Well America under the guise of helping africans against terrorism when in facts its America that are the terrorist aling with there imperial friends!! Fixed and installed corrupt leadership is what has kept Africa out!! This is the same for blacks in America who have voted democrats for generations havent learnt nothing wver changed!! All they got was so many promises every 4yrs and never delivered 1!!! Wake up America its time for a argentina move cut gouvernment by 90% !!!
dumb!
They ain't no good and never has been.
Gaza natural Gass oppen African sobber mind eyes😢😢

U expect to sell uranium for nukes to US enemies like Iran and don't expect payback? 😂. Imagine what Russia will do, if Niger sold Uranium to Ukraine.
Go Home USA and Europe Go Home
West gays left and thats cool)
Yet you're on CZcams. If you hate America so much gtfo
🤣 wait till you are begging them to pick up the phone to save you from Russia 🤣
US was just there to steal not to help as they always do
No-one is going to beg you. Since when anyway? No-one has begged you in the past. All you did was to enslave our people. Russia freed us from colonialism.
You just a slave labor pay taxes for what? 💔
Man shut up 🤡
Yeah @dz7786 they will squander the oil money the nigeriens will not see a single mile of road nor hospital, school etc ...
America helps you . But doesn’t fight for you . That’s there job
