Niger : Déclaration du Haut représentant au nom de l’UE

 

Documents destinés à la presse samedi 12 août 2023

● Conseil de l'UE   12/08/2023 19:36 | Communiqué de presse | Niger : Déclaration du Haut représentant au nom de l’UE   L’UE réitère sa ferme condamnation du coup de force au Niger, qui ne peut avoir que des répercussions négatives sur le bien-être et la sécurité de la population nigérienne ainsi que sur la stabilité régionale. L’Union européenne réitère solennellement son appel au retour à l’ordre constitutionnel, rappelle son soutien au Président Bazoum, et salue les décisions prises par les Chefs d’Etat de la CEDEAO lors du second Sommet extraordinaire consacré à la situation au Niger, ce 10 août 2023, et notamment la volonté de continuer à rechercher une issue diplomatique à la crise en cours, tout en prenant note de la mobilisation de la Force en attente. L’UE soutient pleinement les efforts déployés par la CEDEAO et se tient prête à les appuyer, y compris via la mise en place d’un nouveau régime de sanctions individuelles. L’UE condamne de nouveau la détention illégale du Président Bazoum et de sa famille, et souhaite faire part de sa vive inquiétude quant à la dégradation continue et inquiétante de leurs conditions de détention. L’UE appelle une nouvelle fois à leur libération immédiate et sans condition. Face à la crise que traverse le Niger, l’UE continuera de fournir une aide humanitaire et de rester aux côtés du peuple nigérien, notamment dans son engagement en faveur des droits humains.
