Niger's Ambassador to France confirms support from ECOWAS

BBC World Service - Newsday, Niger's Ambassador to France confirms support from ECOWAS

Niger's security is currently under question after military intervention

In West Africa, Burkina Faso and Mali, which are both ruled by juntas, have said that any military intervention in Niger to reverse last week's coup will be seen as a declaration of war on them. We'll get reaction from Niger's Ambassador to France. 

Also coming up, representatives of Afghanistan's ruling Taliban hold face to face talks with the United States. We'll speak to a former Deputy Speaker in the Afghan parliament. 

After years of economic instability, Lebanon today ushers in a new interim head of its central bank. Will he radically change the direction of the bank’s policies?

Plus, we have reaction to British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's plans for more oil and gas drilling in the North Sea.
