Arsenal seized by Niger junta not 'hidden' by French troops Months after the coup that overthrew President Mohamed Bazoum, Niger’s security forces have seized large quantities of weapons in the capital. They say the military equipment belongs to France, and accuse Paris of trying to destabilise the country. In fact, the items were found in two locations linked to the EU, not France. They say the weapons were there for one reason only: to protect their staff from terrorist threats before their planned withdrawal from the country.
