The last French soldiers have left Niger after the country’s new rulers cancelled defence agreements and ordered the French ambassador to leave.
On Thursday, France announced it was closing its embassy in the capital.
Relations between the two countries broke down following a military coup on July 26.
Al Jazeera’s Ahmed Idris reports from the capital, Niamey.

Well done Niger❤
The world is fed up of Neocolonial rule.All foreign troops are now leaving Africa. The last troops to leave is AU Mission troops in Somalia early 2024. For the world to be a peaceful place, everyone should be respected as they are.
Your country is a international prostitute whilst Niger has dignity.
What about the us troops in balidogle halane and uk trooos in baidoa? Somala still occupied!!
@@jakobjama4612 The country is a prostitute. UAE controls it. African, UK and US troops occupy it. It has no dignity.
All foreign troops including American asholes as well have been given deadline to leave.Just keep watching brother. We don’t need any foreign troops in our country Somalia.
Somalia should be occupied because they don’t love each other and accept each other. My people are hateful and disgusting. I am working on getting German citizenship and never will I even talk about me being Somali. I have had enough in the country and even in other countries with the Somali people. Most of Somali people are not wishing good things to happen for you. They are so mean to women and children as well. Anyone who lived in Somalia will just realize that it was a horror movie only after they leave it. I feel sorry for the ones that are trapped. For me it’s beyond repair.
Farewell you looters,never set your foot in niger again.. finally our brothers can control their destiny
Apparently youtube likes to delete comments that include the palestinian flag
One day “Isn’treal” will do the same as France
Liberté à la palestine
They just play with peoples emotions instead of spending money ln roads …etc
Dont let the french thieves leave without first returning all the local wealth they have pillaging since colonial time
Niger is still not independent yet they should have Muslim world forces to build their country stronger 💪
Kick the French out, and let the Americans in?? 🤔
The Americans have been there and will soon be kicked out. They are not dumb.
@@zaPolymath Africom 🙄
Les djihadistes aussi doivent partir, ils n’ont rien à faire en Afrique
US and Germany must leave too
That’s up to the Nigerian people to decide that
@@alexandreturgeon9831 there is a slight shiver in your reply….leave
THEY MUST LEAVE ASAP!!!!
Mashallha ❤
Ask America 🇺🇸 and other European 🇪🇺 bases to leave,they’re all the same.
Baby steps. They all got to go 100%
Russia is European too. Guess you want help from China?
@chillxxx241 Ah ok today Russia 🇷🇺 is Europe 🇪🇺,, I meant the colonisers,, u know very well what I meant
@@speakup18 Russia is a colonizer too. They were one of the most tyrannical colonizers and imperialist in Human history. The current country is home to nearly 190 ethnicities dominated by the Russians. They colonized Eastern European and Asian countries. People forget that Russia dominated the people of modern day Ukraine, Belarus, Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Finland, Poland, Moldova, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, and Alaska (United States). They still occupy Transnistria (Moldova), Outer Manchuria (China), Kaliningrad (Lithuania) and Kuril Islands (Japan). Be careful who you consider friends.
@@chillxxx241- Russia did not colonise Africa unlike western countries who built their wealth on African resources, slavery and colonistation.
Look how the western are supporting the ethinic cleansing and killing of women ans children in Gaza.
You seem to forget who caused the terrorist problems in the SAHEL in the first place. It was the barbarian imperialists from the west! The same west who killed African leaders, destabilsed countries with Coups or wars, and has kept Africqn countries indebted using the world bank/IMF for 60 plus years.
The art of insanity is doing the same thing over ans over again.
Time for a change and the west have got to go!

Bad Samaritans: The Myth of Free Trade and the Secret History of Capitalism. By Ha-Joon Chang
🎉🎉🎉🥳🥳 already France increased Energy prices by 200% by 2024
Please don’t come back
Gratitude to Niger military and the people of Niger
No more colonialism
Africa must unite against the france colonialism terror and kick the brutal France colonialism terror out of Africa
End western colonialism, it has caused the most oppression in this world
Lemme guess, u are living in a Western country right
Now the rest of the oppressed and occupied Africa needs to do the same. Remove those puppet leaders and take control of your own resources Africa!!!
💯👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
AMEN!!!
Go away, you cowards of colonists
After turn another african countries, colonial is ended
What is the difference when USA and GERMANY are still inthe country..any were good luck too u all your brother from Nigeria 🇳🇬 🇳🇪
Now just stay there and don’t come to Europe!
Great Work Niger people to end there colonial ocupation and end dependency, surely it shall grow in times comes
Don’t you people see how fat that Chief of Staff of the Army of Niger is, who was signing those documents in the beginning of the video??? Yes of course, the French should leave Niger, but if you think that military junta is going to do any good for that country, you’re delusional… They are just fattening themselves with the profits from corruption and the kickbacks from human trafficking, drug trafficking and arms trafficking. They are bad people, living large while the citizens of Niger struggle with food insecurity and power shortages. Already one of the poorest countries in Africa, Niger will continue to become more impoverished with such a braindead, corrupt leadership and such a complacent population.
Finaly
Thank you Jesus, getting rid of these disgusting colonialists is the best thing for Niger.
French soldiers world no.1 terrorist organisation.
All of the foriegners must leave Africa cause Africa has military base in there country leave America Germany yoi next leave the mother land
Now never allow any foreigner with any excuse of aid or trade ۔watchfull
I think Niger should replace whatsoever date they have been celebrating false independence day to this day as the official real INDEPENDENCE DAY of Niger.
Replacement of the French by the Americans and Germans isn’t all that different, is it?
Depending of the mission of US/German have…. It’s up to the Nigerian people to decide… France colonised Niger, so it is completely different relation with US and Germany … it’s all about fairness
@alexandreturgeon9831 overall, nothing fair about or with the West
Now we get to see how long it takes, until Niger implodes…
Now watch and see ‘terrorism’, ‘armed groups’ decline and Niger gets peaceful and develops.
They were in Niger to loot it not to help it.
without colonialism Niger would be in much worse shape, stuck in the 1800’s.
Congrats to Niger you finally are free from France!
Now enjoy rampant terrorism and violence that will continue to escalate in your country as nature abhors of vacuum.
Maybe in the long run it will work out for Africa but in the meantime buckle up butter cupS
The French authorities are not smart, never were. Russia which originally had fewer grounds troops, now has an entire Sahel force and other claimed French African colonies, at it’s beck and call, should NATO make the silly mistake of attacking the Russian federation. Putin is really talented I must say.
That’s where the expression “What are you, French?” came from.
*Niger, Chad, Sudan, Burkina Faso, Guinea, Gabon, Mali, Myanmar.*
under Military government.
So too is the usa under the military industrial complex. 890 billion dollars per year to feed the US military which decides which wars to start in the peaceful world.
We need to bring the French back to Niger. African’s can’t take care of themselves. If they French leave a humanitarian crisis will follow. We must do what is best for humanity, not the Nigerian government,
The Awami League government has established a dictatorship by killing, arresting, and disappearing the people of Bangladesh by the police, RAB, BGB, and the army. The people of Bangladesh are democratic by birth. Please save Bangladesh.India is deeply interfering in the elections of Bangladesh to kill the democracy of Bangladesh. India wants to fulfill their desire of a united India by occupying Bangladesh illegally.
what defence agreement ??😂😂 thr counry had a coup where is the defence , only think they take is niger resoures and build western economies with niger resources , africans will never learn 😂😂
All America 🇺🇸 and other European 🇪🇺 bases must leave in africa they Support Terrorist, Conflict and Sabotage Africa Goverment
Good Example Niger People

America 🇺🇸 and other European 🇪🇺 bases must leave in africa they Support Terrorist, Conflict and Sabotage Africa Goverment & Development

Am from Niger I want American base out off my country too , i have no idea what USA gouvernement has done in Afghanistan, irak , Libya and so on , we Niger République People, we don’t have Niger army base in the USA so why american base in our soil to create us terrorists groupe, not acceptable.
Good Bye France.
_The _*_French_*_ have moved out all their _*_military_*_ hardware to France and _*_some of it to neighboring Chad._* [1:12]
The keywords are “some of France’s military hardware is going to *neighboring* Chad.” In other words, France will be keeping a close eye on Niger nearby. Furthermore, the fact that the *German* and *U.S.* troops will still be in Niger for the time being sends the message that the “West” is *still present* in Niger. By the way, France can also turn to _ECOWAS_ as its colonial stand-in. The irony is that ECOWAS is *_less humanitarian_* than the *military juntas* in the region it is highly critical of. The juntas are *giving assistance* to Niger while ECOWAS does all it can *to starve* Nigeriens. Is ECOWAS showing the world what “democracy” looks like?
_It’s the _*_military_*_ and _*_its supporters_*_ that _*_chased down the French, not the general populace_* — Saleh Adji, Abdoumoumouni Dioffo University.
If that’s the case, the “general populace” must have been *silent* and *cooped up* indoors as *thousands* took to the streets and the stadium, *celebrating* the end of the last government. They are not alone; there is *widespread* anger over French colonial interventions in the region.
Finally colonizers went away. Keep watch for the new ones
Enjoy your 🇷🇺 overlords. I’m sure they’ll be way more fair than the 🇫🇷. 🙄
So u gona kick out france and bring in German and united state? They are the same white people come on .African leaders oh no no no
They will bring Russia and china
Macron is runnng to the arms of Xi and Vladimir.
And don’t subject Niger to dictatorship and tyranny😢 please, it’s the killer of all dreams, lives and the start of evil 👿. Rule with love and let people decide if they still want you to lead. Do not kidnap an entire nation.
Send all Nigerians living in France back to Nigeria. Everyone on his land.
Free Palestine 🇵🇸
They were kicked out after protecting terrorists for over a decade. Bravo to the people of Niger. Greater Africa
Shukr Allah
Good and us NATO?! Still in Muslim countries ,,,,🤯
Niger must get rid of all ,USA ,Uk ,like france ,and make the country strong like Afghanistan by their own.
No more foreign military bases or troops in Africa
Is this the country that africans were “supposed to protest against”? You’re crazy.. congrats Niger 🇳🇪
Amen.
hahaha Im sure Niger is going to take off and rise to the technology age now that the french are gone. the french were clearly holding them back from their true potential.
💗💗💗🇳🇪🇳🇪🇳🇪💗💗💗💪🇳🇪🇳🇪💪
A new day of age from modern colonization. Congrats 💪🏾
Surprise surprise the french surrender again!
Crazy people now you’ll have Russian influence 😂😂😂 instead of Europe and American 😂😂😂
It’s fine let them defend these countries from rebels and terror groups.
Niger, Burkina Faso and Mali have REAL leaders. FREE Africa from neo Cons
🎉🎉🎉🎉
Bon voyage, colonisateurs
Now Russia is your new masters…may God have mercy on you😂
USA and Germany should also leave Niger
No more no more
Both USA 🇺🇸 and Germany 🇩🇪 leave our continent we don’t need you
I thought the French said they won’t leave Niger?
These colonial imperialist should know they are not wanted in Africa, next the British should leave Kenya as well and the Americans and all other so-called western countries that have their military on African continent should leave. They trained terrorist groups and creates chaos in Africa and Africa don’t need them.
Watching Niger’s economy completely stall after ditching the CFA, because even tho they wanted to get rid of it so bad they didn’t even do something as simple as plan. Lol
0:22 only supporters of military governance have hat game this strong.
Alhamdulillah. Wishing Niger prosperity and peace. Live free.
Only now the Nigerien people are truly free.
Never again
Alhamdulillah❤
Kick out USA as well
BUT USA AND MOSCOW ARE THERE SO???
Congratulations to Niger.
Just leave an Africa if it want to be dependent
France isn’t an enemy of an Africa but an Israel and USA are an enemies of an Africa
Hurrah… Need to make sure that French saboteurs aren’t lurking around.
End of raping and pillaging by a colonial power
Congratulations
It is important Aljazeera to mention that France has been stealing Niger’s gold and Uranium for years.
Don’t trust the Americans and the Germans either… kick them out…they are all the same people…
Yea gettout of Africa all white pirates paracites barbarians colonialist Out out out
So, the armed uniformed thugs of one of the most horrible and most barbaric gangs of thieves and murderers, namely France, have been kicked out of Niger. Well done, Niger. Congratulations to the people of Niger.
Of course, you know what the leave is. They’re going to take or destroy everything they can. They’re intention was never to help these countries in the first place. Let them take that garbage will replace it with better stuff.
But better watch out for the spies they might l Believe behind
Its digusting how this channel reports the interactions between the Original Onyx Africans and the Pale Colonial invaders as “relations” when indeed it was coerced oppression, exploitation, murder committed by pale colonizers, and resource stealing from the Africans.
Nice now stay at home or go to russia
Exchanging a thief for another extreme criminal..France moving out for America and Germany??..oh mama Africa, let’s think of doing our own thing..
Don’t forget to print and control your own currency.
The people from niger can breath properly now with that terrible French stench
No they cannot,never. Can never trust the french again ever. Never never never again ever
Nigeria should invade France….Oh, wait…France has already been invaded by Klaus….
If civilians perform and liberate their people from neocolonialism,no military will take power but the civilian government are weak and corrupt.
