alphacyberranger11 nations of West Africa commit to a military deployment to restore the ousted president of Niger
TedescheCan anyone direct me to an article that summarizes the relevant history in West Africa (in an unbiased fashion) and how it relates to the present coup in Niger? I don’t feel like I have enough knowledge of the region to make an informed judgment about which side to support (if any) in this conflict.
It seems to me that neither side deserves support but the west deserves less. The people of the country seem to support to coup by a wide margin.
Are they supporting the coup or are they just against the previous government? Also, how do you measure a coup’s support? Juntas tend to suppress opinions.
I think the poll question was about support of the new government’s policies. I can’t answer the second question as I have no idea how this poll was done.
