News is that Niger's military government just denounced the 2012 accord with the US that was the basis of the latter's base and operations in Niger.
“The government of Niger, taking into account the aspirations and interests of its people, decides with full responsibility to denounce with immediate effect the agreement relating to the status of military personnel of the United States and civilian employees of the American Department of Defense in the territory of the Republic of Niger,” Niger military spokesman Colonel Major Amadou Abdramane said in a statement on national television announcing the change.
Abdramane added that the agreement between the two countries – signed in 2012, was imposed on Niger and had been in violation of the “constitutional and democratic rules” of the West African nation’s sovereignty.
“This agreement is not only profoundly unfair in its substance but it also does not meet the aspirations and interests of the Nigerien people,” he said.
So, how was that 2012 accord agreed to in first place? Is there some merit to the claim it was in 'violation of the “constitutional and democratic rules”' of Niger? Yeah, that coming from a coup-installed military government is somewhat ironic, but still, does their claim the accord wasn't valid to begin with have some legal legs?
There's slighly more detail in an Italian source:
according to Niamey, the agreement itself, which was "unilaterally imposed" by the United States, through a "simple verbal note", on 6 July 2012, is illegitimate and "unjust".
(BTW, another news piece notes that that spokesperson didn't quite ask for the US troops to leave, so it's somewhat possible they're just looking to renegotiate the terms of the accord. OTOH the PM appointed by the military recently visited Russia and Iran.)
