Niger Gets US Military Aid As Trump Challenges Putin's Russia In Sahel | Firstpost Africa | N18G

Washington has delivered more than $2.3 million worth of military equipment to Niger's armed forces, less than two years after U.S. troops were ordered to leave the country. The move comes as Russia continues expanding its security influence across the Alliance of Sahel States through the Africa Corps and growing military partnerships.
