Situation in Gabon, West Africa big issue for Europe —EU

August 30, 2023 • 1 min read

The European Union Foreign Policy Chief, Josep Borrell, on Wednesday, said EU defence ministers are to discuss the situation in Gabon.

Borrell added that if a coup was confirmed in Gabon, it would heap more instability on the region.

A group of senior Gabonese military officers appeared on national television in the early hours of Wednesday and said they had taken power after the state election body announced President Ali Bongo had won a third term.

The signs of a coup in Gabon came just weeks after members of the presidential guard in Niger seized power and established a junta.

“This is a big issue for Europe,” he added as quoted by Reuters.
