France in talks with Niger officials over troop withdrawal: Reports

France is reported to be in talks with Niger's army about the possible withdrawal of some of its troops.
Niger's coup leaders have been urging France to withdraw 1,500 troops stationed there and have ordered the French ambassador to leave.
Thousands of protesters have been rallying outside the French military base in the capital Niamey.
Niger was plunged into turmoil in July when President Mohamed Bazoum was ousted in a coup.
Nicolas Normand is the former French Ambassador to Mali and Senegal. He joins us live from Paris to discuss the latest updates.

In March 2008, former French President Jacques Chirac said: “Without Africa, France will slide down into the rank of a third [world] power” Chirac’s predecessor François Mitterand already prophesied in 1957 that: “Without Africa, France will have no history in the 21st century” Former French President Jacques Chirac recently spoke about the African nations money in France banks and about the French exploitation scheme: “We have to be honest, and acknowledge that a big part of the money in our banks come precisely from the exploitation of the African continent.” The economic and monetary hostage hold France has over its former colonies benefits mostly France, these nations' citizens live in generally poorer conditions than the rest of Africa. Without it's stranglehold on its former colonies France would drop about ten places lower on the list of richest European countries. France has carried out several DOZEN coups to replace leaders who bring up the withdrawal of reserves or a fairer economic relationship.

@@yowcephhelm5910 I just sighed. It's really sad not to realize how right @legion is, and that the dead brain here is not him but you. These French-speaking sub-saharan Africans have been independent for more than 60 years. Yet, they still use a colonial currency printed by the same colonial master turned into a neo-colonial master. What is more, none of these African countries is ever present when this currency is printed. They don't even know how much is printed since it's the currency of 14 African vassal states of France. France can and does print as much francs CFA as it needs not as those vassal states need. Then they deposit - today - 50% of their reserves with the same French Central bank that prints, controls and manages their currency. It was 85% before 2018. Can you imagine that? Just how foolish can a people be and we are being asked to keep quiet so as not to hurt their feelings. The worst of this deal between France and its present black African colonies is this; if any of them wants to withdraw from its own reserves with the French Central bank, it must be in the form of loans to be repaid to France with interests. Let me explain further; rather than give them their money in the reserves with the French Central bank, the French Central bank will give it to them as loans from the French Central bank. Then these African countries will repay with interests for borrowing their own money. This is unique and unheard of in the history of mankind. As a French, I feel terrible recounting and writing these daylight crimes we commit against the poorest nations on earth. But who let's himself be robbed so foolishly and for decades on without protesting? This is beyond me.

@erikmorales4258 ​ The big difference between Taiwan and Palestine is that has been sovereign, self-governed for 74 years and the other was founded by a previously designated terrorist organization. Also, if you wanna study some history, my friend, the reason why only 13 countries recognize Taiwan, while the rest do not, is because the PRC says so. The PRC has a very strong and stubborn one-China policy that it imposes on her diplomatic allies and uses its industrial and economic base to beguile other countries to follow this strict interpretation of the one-China policy.

NafoDato, what's your point and what are you trying to prove?!! Wasn't the USA seen running from Vietnam with helicopters over the American embassy airlifting American embassy officials? Come on who are you deceiving? Didn't the USA also leave Afghanistan in a hurry like they did in Vietnam?!! This time with weapons worth billions let behind!! What's you point about that? Then according to you, is it all about the USA staying in someone's country through force of arms and killing people in their country?!!!

[@lolazal1]

The US didn't leave Afghanistan, they left to start the war in Ukraine

[@titorunigangwe2963]

They keep claiming Africa is suffering just a poor country yes, why when you're told to leave you keep complaining.

[@carenogalo5319]

Fir the first time I'm coming to learn that French people are still liviin stone age period

If Mum and the kids say you're no longer welcomed and to leave their house, there really is not much point in saying 'but your father, whom I recognise as the rightful owner of the house has not asked me to leave yet'

[@african-history-fountain]

Best news of the day. Thanks.

[@Lieu_Tenant_Gambit]

[@hetty7891]

[@arljohn3510]

I. Don't know why foreign powers, EVOWAS and other get it. The people love their new government. Why do you want to put a burden on them?

[@endoferagoat2393]

Good job 👍🏽 win for the Niger 🇳🇪

[@blacklight3012]

8:09 example of WS. Its degrading or looked upon as a loss when told to leave someone country and they do it. If there strictly there to help and the help is no longrr wanted. Wats the problem? Loved " bowed to them" as if they should not leave or how dare they tell France to leave.

[@clemderrick7236]

They must go unity in action united we stand they must go no to racism

[@elimanecisse6132]

On the contrary, it is the French who are talking about an attempted coup not the US.

[@itumelengmangope6796]

Why is France so invested?

[@S.jega94]

France dilemma is what Nigerians call “God open your yansh for public” 😂😂

[@dee24874]

Let's hope so...full withdrawal!!

[@dianafarmer6230]

pray

[@mog4135]

Why does France and US have over 800 bases in all Africa... WHY.?

[@ItopaAl]

The security deterioration in Mali and Burkina Faso is as a result of the neighboring countries like Chad, Niger and others which still harbor French forces which provides arms, training and cover for the insurgents. If the whole region were rid of western forces and bases it would take little to no time to mop up the militias they created.

[@AdamAdam-vd9rg]

France can't even help to build roads i see the reason ...

[@Bcv734]

The only think they are capable to do is still resources from África bring to France

[@ratednudeearth]

"There are no special interest for France to be in Niger other than to help fight against Jihadist" Oh ok, then... you can leave then. That coup is ready to harm anything effecting its country so...whats the next excuse,Mr French Ambassador?

[@SamiNami]

They will leave and death will come to Niger

[@curtisthomas2670]

In March 2008, former French President Jacques Chirac said: “Without Africa, France will slide down into the rank of a third [world] power” Chirac’s predecessor François Mitterand already prophesied in 1957 that: “Without Africa, France will have no history in the 21st century” Former French President Jacques Chirac recently spoke about the African nations money in France banks and about the French exploitation scheme: “We have to be honest, and acknowledge that a big part of the money in our banks come precisely from the exploitation of the African continent.” The economic and monetary hostage hold France has over its former colonies benefits mostly France, these nations' citizens live in generally poorer conditions than the rest of Africa. Without it's stranglehold on its former colonies France would drop about ten places lower on the list of richest European countries. France has carried out several DOZEN coups to replace leaders who bring up the withdrawal of reserves or a fairer economic relationship.

[@NafoDato]

Are the jihadists gone or eradicated in Niger? No, so France can still stay. What point were you honestly trying to make?

[@thelastbison2241]

Europe has no great powers except Russia despite the problems in the Ukraine war.

[@NafoDato]

Russia doesn't have insurance coverage, which comes primarily from Europe, to legally ship oil outside of Russia.

[@godfreyjohn6046]

The French army should pull out and start the discussion on equal terms. Europe cannot survive without Africa, so let them be wise here and discuss real business.

[@thelastbison2241]

Next leaving French currency system...
