‘Democracy is what we stand for’ — ECOWAS defence chiefs back dialogue to resolve Niger crisis | TheCable NigerCoup

The committee of chiefs of defence staff of the Economic Community of West African States says interventions in the Niger Republic must encompass political, security and diplomatic dimensions.

ECOWAS had given the military junta in Niger a week from Sunday to reinstate ousted President Mohamed Bazoum or face harder sanctions. “We have acknowledged the need for a comprehensive approach that encompasses political, security and diplomatic dimensions. “Dialogue and negotiations should be at the forefront of our approach to resolving the crisis in the Republic of Niger.

“The results of whatever has been achieved here will be presented very soon to the heads of the central government who will have the last say as to what we are going to do about the situation in the Republic of Niger, provided that all diplomatic overtures do not yield result.
