Algeria newspaper indicates UAE role in Niger coup - Middle East Monitor
French-language Algerian newspaper Le Soir d'Algerie reported that the United Arab Emirates (UAE) may have played a role in the attempted coup against Niger's President Mohamed Bazoum.
The newspaper pointed out that all eyes were on the current Niger ambassador to the UAE, who was the army's chief of staff before Bazoum dismissed him.
The newspaper noted that the presence of the former chief of staff of the Niger army in the UAE may have given him the "boldness" to turn the table on Bazoum, especially if he was supported by senior officials in Abu Dhabi.
