  1. What you see is a propaganda. We are 27 million people in Niger republic and we said no to coup,yes to democracy.we so much put our hope in US to help us to restore back our country to democracy.that is what those oppressive uncompatriotes, corrupted soldiers are against.they are feeling not at ease with the presence of such super power closely.

  2. Oops its diplomacy when you come unannounced and them continue to lecture your host and make demands as to who is allowed in his house. Diplomacy is long dead and overated people should learn to just call a spade what it is. Whenever you hear diplomacy, human rights. Democracy. Know you have something they want to steal from you and so need a puppet in chief on their back and strings.

  3. They complain about foreign forces… yet accept the forces of a new neo-colonial master. Yeesh, these doods need a new scriptwriter; ruzzian trolls just aren't cutting it.

  4. If someone hadn't blown the whistle on the Biden cover up these troops would be lost to us forever. Still not sure he'll get them out. It's one more international debacle in this administrations stream of disasters.
