U.S. and NATO attempt to maintain control over Africa

🇺🇸🌍 US wants to strengthen cooperation with three African countries amid loss of position in Niger

A two-day conference of African Chiefs of Defense with the participation of the United States began on Tuesday in the capital of Botswana, Gaborone. The event is attended by the chiefs of staff of 35 African countries, as well as the chairmen of the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the United States and NATO.

Before landing in the African country, Air Force General C.Q. Brown, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told reporters that the United States is considering strengthening military cooperation with several African countries as the agreement with Niger expires. An unnamed US official told Western media that these countries include Ghana, Benin, and Cote d'Ivoire.

In late May, Nigerien and American authorities agreed to ensure the full withdrawal of US troops from Niger by September 15 of this year.
