At a time when military intervention in Niger is becoming clearer, Algeria deeply regrets that the use of violence has taken the lead on the path of a negotiated political solution peacefully restoring constitutional and democratic order in this brother and neighbouring country.
Algeria remains, in fact, with a strong conviction that this negotiated political solution is still possible, that all the paths that can lead to it have not been taken and that all these possibilities have not been exhausted.
The history of our region abundantly teaches that military interventions have carried a lot of problems than solutions and that they have been additional factors of clashes and heartbreaks rather than sources of stability and security.
Before the irreparable is committed, and before the region is caught in the spiral of violence whose incalculable consequences no one can predict, Algeria calls on all parties to restraint, wisdom and reason that all command to resolutely restore the highest priority to the negotiated political option to the current constitutional crisis, thus saving Niger and the entire region from the days heavy with threats and dangers, in particular Region.
