The Niger Republic coup leaders have ordered the ambassador of Germany to exit the country within 48 hours.
The Niger coupist appears very determined in their quest to restore their country and they are willing to clear any obstacles blocking their way.
According to the foreign ministry, the country asked Germany to leave due to “the refusal of the German ambassador in Niamey to respond to an invitation” from the ministry for a meeting Friday and “other actions of the German government contrary to the interests of Niger”.
The coup leaders earlier ordered France ambassador, Itte to leave their country after the ambassador “refused to respond to an invitation” for a Friday meeting.
Military Force
The military rulers accused France of wanting to use military force to reinstate the democratically elected President, Mohamed Bazoum and claim that the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) is under French influence.
France currently has about 1,500 troops in Niger to help combat jihadist groups affecting the country and the broader Sahel region.

On their own part, ECOWAS had threatened to invade the country if military coup leaders failed to return authority in the country to Bazoum who is currently being detained.
