Russian Troops Arrive in Niger

 The Washington Post published on 12 April 2024 an article titled "Russian Soldiers Arrive in Niger as Relationship with U.S. Deteriorates" by Rachel Chason.

Russian soldiers have arrived in Niger to train the Nigerien army, presumably replacing American trainers who remain at their base in the country.  It is not clear what will happen to the U.S. forces.
