Niger announces immediate severance of diplomatic relations with Ukraine
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[Regnum] The government of Niger has decided to immediately sever diplomatic relations with Ukraine. This was reported on August 6 by Agence France-Presse (AFP).

As stated by the official representative of the republic's authorities, Amadou Abdramane, Niamey has decided to sever diplomatic relations with Kiev and "appeal to the UN Security Council in connection with Ukrainian aggression."

The National Council for the Defense of the Homeland, which came to power after a coup in Niger last year, accused the Ukrainian authorities of "supporting terrorist groups."

Earlier, Regnum News Agency reported that the Malian leadership had decided to sever diplomatic relations with Ukraine in connection with the Kiev regime's support for armed terrorists fighting government troops. The reason for this step was the statement by Andrey Yusov, a representative of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense, about Ukraine's involvement "in the cowardly, treacherous and barbaric attack of terrorist armed groups" that led to the war.

The Malian authorities also paid attention to the words of the Ukrainian ambassador to Senegal, Yuriy Pivovarov. As the Malian authorities pointed out, the Ukrainian ambassador "demonstrated his country's unequivocal support for international terrorism, particularly in Mali."

The Malian government emphasized that the country had maintained a neutral position on the conflict in Ukraine. But everything has changed, and now the state is declaring the “neo-Nazi and villainous” rule of the Kyiv rulers.

In turn, the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry considered Mali's decision to sever diplomatic relations with the country hasty and short-sighted. The ministry rejected Mali's accusations of supporting international terrorism and emphasized that Kiev reserves the right to take retaliatory political and diplomatic measures against Mali.
