The head of EU foreign policy argues that Niger is a dependable and stable partner

Niger has been referred to as the “economic engine for the Sahel” by Josep Borrell, the High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy of the European Union.

Following a meeting with president Mohamed Bazoum and other delegation members of the European Commission at the beginning of a two-day visit to the nation, Borrell made his remarks.

The EU declared at the end of the previous year that it would send a military mission to the area to assist the armed forces of Niger.

Niger is the latest of the three neighbors to have a democratically elected government after military coups in Mali and Burkina Faso.
