"The West African nation Niger is under military rule following a coup in which
President Mohamed Bazoum was overthrown and held captive by members of his own
guard.
On July 28, 2023, coup leaders named General Abdourahmane Tchiani as the new
head of state, while international observers called for democratic norms to be
reinstalled.
Where the coup leaves the country and what happens next is unclear. The
Conversation turned to Leonardo A. Villalón, political scientist and West
African expert at the University of Florida, for some answers."
