2023 coup in Niger
background
Since independence from France in 1960, Niger has witnessed four military coups, the most recent of which was in 2010 as well as many other failed attempts, the latest of which was in 2021 when military defectors attempted to seize the presidential palace two days before the inauguration of elected President Bazoum, who was the country's first president. He takes over from his democratically elected predecessor. This coup attempt followed similar events in neighboring countries such as Guinea, Mali, and Burkina Faso since 2020, which led to the region being called the “coup belt.” Analysts said the rising cost of living and perceptions of government inefficiency and corruption may have driven the rebellion. The Nigerien army has received training and logistical support from the United States and France, which have bases there, and in 2022 the country becomes the center of France's anti-jihadist operations in the Sahel, after being expelled from Mali and Burkina Faso, and Bazoum is described as one of the few remaining pro-Western leaders in the region. With multiple coups and anti-French sentiment rising in the region, Niger became France's partner of last resort, and US-trained officers reportedly trained several members of the presidential guard.

Early on 26 July, the Presidency Twitter account announced that the Presidential Guard, led by General Abdul Rahman Chiani had taken part in an "anti-republican demonstration" and tried "in vain" to gain the support of other security forces. It added that President Mohamed Bazoum and his family are being held in the presidential palace in the capital, Niamey. Interior Minister Hamadou Soli was also arrested and detained in the palace, while approximately two dozen members of the presidential guard were seen outside later in the day. The coup was reportedly led by Chiane, whom analysts said Bazoum had intended to remove from office. Sources close to Bazoum said he took the decision on Chiani's dismissal at a cabinet meeting on 24 July as relations between them were reported to have soured. President Bazoum's wife, Hadiza Bazoum, and his son, Salem, were arrested with him in the presidential palace, while his daughters were in Paris at the time of the coup.
