Nigeria&#8217;s President and the chairman of the bloc Bola Tinubu named negotiation and dialogue as the priority approach to resolve the situation in Niger.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, chiefs of the ECOWAS Monitoring Group, the bloc&#8217;s military arm, has already discussed the outlines of a possible military operation. The launch date of it remains unknown, though.<\/p>\n<p>It should be noted that several members of the organization, such as Mali and Burkina Faso, don&#8217;t support the use of force against Niger. The interim governments of Burkina Faso and Mali claimed that it will amount to &#8220;a declaration of war&#8221; against them.<\/p>\n<p>Over the last 30 years, the bloc has undertaken several successful military interventions to restore constitutional order within its region. The countries, in which ECOWAS has intervened, include Liberia, Sierra Leone, Guinea-Bissau, Cote d&#8217;Ivoire, Mali and The Gambia.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/gambia\">Gambia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Gambia.
