Biden, in a message on Thursday to mark Niger’s 63rd Independence anniversary, also called for the restoration of democracy.
Biden said: “I call for President Bazoum and his family to be immediately released, and for the preservation of Niger’s hard-earned democracy,” Biden said in a statement Thursday, the 63rd anniversary of Niger’s independence.
“In this critical moment, the United States stands with the people of Niger to honor our decades-long partnership rooted in shared democratic values and support for civilian-led governance.”
The United States President added that the Nigerien people have the right to choose their leaders.
“They have expressed their will through free and fair elections — and that must be respected,” he said.
