 Meanwhile, the United Nations, United States and Echoes have voiced outrage over threats by Niger's military rulers to try to detain President Mohammed Bazaam, saying the move would worsen tension. On Sunday, Niger's pooches that toppled Mohammed Bazaam said they would prosecute the ousted president for high treason and undermining the security of the country. UN spokesperson Stephanie Dujari said that an attempt by Niger's junta to bring charges of high treason against democratically elected President Mohammed Bazaam is very worrying. Meanwhile, the U.S. expressed disapproval on Monday over Niger's military rulers' threats to try to detain President Mohammed Bazaam, warning the move would exacerbate tensions. We are incredibly dismayed by the reports that President Bazaam's unjust detention has gone an even step further, and now that the CNSP is threatening prosecution. This action is completely unwarranted and unjustified, and candidly it will not contribute to a peaceful resolution of this crisis. It is a further affront in our opinion to democracy and justice and to the respect of the rule of law, and a threat like this underscores the urgency of respecting the constitutional order in Niger.
