'Signal of Hope & Confidence': Malian Political Scientist on Russian Military Instructors in Niger
Shortly after a telephone conversation between the Russian and Nigerien leaders on strengthening the military partnership between the two nations, Russia sent specialists to the West African country to train Nigerien forces in counter-terrorism.
The arrival of on Russian military instructors in
Niger is "a signal of hope and confidence," Malian political scientist Adama Diabaté told
Sputnik Africa."After the cases of Mali, I think that today all Africans are eager for the presence of Russia in their own country," Diabaté said.
According to him, Russia is "the only superpower that has shown honesty in its geopolitical relations with Africa."
The recent arrival of Russian specialists in Niamey to train the country's law enforcement agencies in the fight against terrorism "will only further strengthen and reassure our countries: Mali, Niger, Burkina Faso, the entire AES."
"For 11 years, the West
has been unable to defeat the terrorists" in the Sahel, the expert noted. The West "does not pursue any policy in Africa except the policy of chaos," it sowed "chaos in order to become firefighters, that is, arson firefighters," he added. On the other hand, Russia has come "to really fight the terrorists."
Beninese analyst Suleiman Amzat
also praised the arrival of the Russian instructors in Niger, calling it "a good initiative."
