Resumen
El golpe de Estado ocurrido el 26 de julio de 2023 en la República de Níger representa un hecho disruptivo para toda la región del Sahel occidental; tuvo como consecuencias directas el quiebre de las relaciones diplomáticas con Francia; el robustecimiento de un nexo político-económico con potencias orientales, como Rusia y China; y la formación de una alianza económica y militar, con los respectivos gobiernos de facto que lideran sus vecinos Burkina Faso y Mali. Es posible entrever el gran cambio de paradigma en África, en donde esta alianza puede ser la primera chispa que encienda una cadena de ideales y políticas proteccionistas en el continente; ya existen como precedentes la expulsión de las fuerzas militares francesas de sus territorios y el hecho de haberse respaldado mutuamente hasta las últimas consecuencias frente a otros Estados africanos que amenazaron con deponer sus gobiernos.
The coup d'état that took place on July 26, 2023 in the Republic of Niger represents a disruptive event for the entire West Sahel region. Its direct consequences include the rupture of diplomatic relations with France, the strengthening of political and economic ties with Eastern powers, such as Russia and China, and the formation of an economic and military alliance with the respective de facto governments led by their neighbors Burkina Faso and Mali.One can foresee a significant paradigm shift in Africa, where this alliance may serve as the catalyst igniting a chain of protectionist ideals and policies across the continent. It is worth noting that this follows the precedent of expelling French military forces from their territories and mutually supporting each other to the fullest extent when facing threats from other African states that sought to depose their governments.
