Le Figaro:

A few hours before the coup in Niger, the DGSE (French foreign intelligence service) advised French government to place special forces in the presidential palace in Niamey.

But the answer was no.

That would be interpreted as “colonialism”.

The Times:

“Niger after Mali, that’s a lot,” said Macron to his DGSE (French foreign intelligence service) chief, Bernard Émié.

“We can see that the DGSE’s way of functioning is not satisfactory. When you don’t see anything coming, there’s a problem.”

Émié defended himself, saying:

“I wrote a report on the situation in Niger in January.”

A minister told Le Canard enchaîné that no one had noted Émié’s warning.

“Either we are all stupid or the report was incomprehensible,” they said.

Reuters:

Russia doubled its defense spending in 2023 to over $100 billion, a third of all government spending.
