Niger Can Rely on Other AES Members in Case of Deficit in Show of Solidarity: Economist on Confederation Prospects
Unlike ECOWAS, which "was very lacking in solidarity," the Alliance of Sahel States can compensate for missing assets for member countries, Nigerien economist Hambaly Dodo Oumarou told Sputnik Africa.
Remarkable economic growth
Since joining the AES, Niger has shown notable economic progress. In 2024, despite a difficult international context, the growth rate reached 8.4%, driven by oil exports and a thriving agriculture sector.
Membership in the AES also guarantees increased security. Without this support, Niger's borders could be vulnerable to external threats.
Solidarity and a shared future
Any attempt to undermine an AES member, whether economic, financial, or military, is met with collective resistance from member countries, underscoring the importance of this alliance.
