On September 24, 2023, at the end of an interview on French TV, Emmanuel Macron stated
France has decided to bring back its ambassador and therefore, in the coming hours, our ambassador with several diplomats will return to France. And we are ending our military cooperation with the de facto authorities of Niger, because they no longer want to fight terrorism
Macron is a usual liar, Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger are indeed fighting terrorism. As a reminder, the jihadist insurrection in the Sahel was the direct result of the destruction of Libya, that NATO attacks caused in 2011, at the instigation of France. Named Serval then Barkhane, the French antiterrorist operation was a failure. For fear of significant casualties which would have shocked public opinion, France did not really make war. 31 KIA service members since 2013 in the whole region are in military terms, marginal. On October 14, 2017, a single day in Niger, the US lost 4 members of the Special Operations Forces. But the French troops have slaughtered scores of civilians
