Coup In Niger

Even as India is trying to boost its footprint in Africa, the coup d’etat in Niger last month is expected to help Russia to further increase its influence in the continent. Russia is among the four major powers that have interests in Africa, the others being the US, China and the European Union. India, too, has thrown its hat in the ring and is engaged in a rivalry with China in the continent.

The Government of India on Friday issued an advisory for Indian nationals in Niger asking them to leave the country as soon as possible in light of the prevailing political situation. This comes as the situation in the West African country has worsened following the recent coup in Niger, which saw the military group take control and detain President Bazoum. It has now raised concerns about the political instability of the region.
