Macron rejects the ultimatum to expel the ambassador from Nigeria

France has decided not to withdraw its ambassador from Nigeria, even though the coup organizers had given him 48 hours to leave the country.

This was confirmed by President Emmanuel Macron during a challenging speech, who said that Ambassador Sylvain Itte will continue to stay in Niger, and even applauded his decision.

"France and its diplomats have faced particularly difficult situations in several countries in recent months, from Sudan to Niger. I applaud your colleague Itte for the decision made", Macron said in a meeting with the diplomatic corps.

Niger's president, Mohamed Bazoum, was ousted on July 26 in a coup, a development that has been condemned by France and many of the country's neighbors.

Ambassador Itte refused to meet with Niger's new leaders after the coup, and the military junta therefore demanded his removal.

In Monday's speech, Macron defended France's military presence in Niger, stating that without Paris's intervention, the country would no longer exist with its existing borders.
