he Nigerien government has just inaugurated an investigation center for the fight against terrorism and transnational crime in Agadez (north of the country). This center is funded by the European Union in the face of growing insecurity characterized by the persistence of attacks by jihadist organizations and other armed groups.
For years, the country has faced a multitude of sources of violence, particularly in the Lake Chad basin to the east, the border with Nigeria to the south, the border with Libya to the northeast, the border with Mali and that of Burkina Faso. According to the Minister of the Interior of Niger, Adamou Hammadou Souley, terrorism is considered one of the most serious threats to international peace and security, has evolved dangerously in recent years, and also and above all seeks to endanger the stability, even the very existence of States.
