美國撤出尼日

發生了什麼

當局於2024年3月下令美軍撤出後，撤離行動於5月19日展開。美軍於7月7日離開尼阿美的第101空軍基地，於8月5日離開阿加德茲的第201空軍基地，並在雙方商定的9月15日前完成整個過程。第201空軍基地耗資約110百萬美元，被美國空軍描述為其史上由空軍主導的最大規模建設項目，專為無人機作戰與尼日部隊訓練而建。俄羅斯訓練人員已於5月抵達第101空軍基地，當時美方人員仍在基地內。

The end of the Western counter-terrorism architecture in the Sahel, and the clearest single measure of what the region's realignment cost the states that made it. Niger gave up a surveillance and strike capability that has not been publicly replaced, in a theatre where its own losses have since become an internal political problem. The overlap at Air Base 101 — Russian trainers arriving while American troops were still on the base — is the substitution stated in its plainest form.
