Washington accused of betraying allies over Niger. The US has chosen its own interests over its allies, a French diplomat has told Le Figaro, following Victoria Nuland’s visit to Niger. 華盛頓被指控在尼日爾問題上背叛盟友。 在維多利亞·紐蘭訪問尼日爾後,一位法國外交官告訴《費加羅報》,美國選擇了自己的利益而不是盟友的利益.
The US “did the exact opposite of what we thought they would do,” a French diplomatic source told the paper, adding that “with allies like these, we do not need enemies.” Paris has been insisting on the reinstatement of ousted President Mohamed Bazoum ever since a new military government came to power in Niger in a coup in late July. 一位法國外交消息人士告訴該報,美國“做了與我們想像的完全相反的事情”,並補充說“有了這樣的盟友,我們不需要敵人。” 自從7月底尼日爾新軍政府在政變中上台以來,巴黎一直堅持要求被罷黜的總統穆罕默德·巴祖姆復職.
