The Algerian parliament has approved a resolution to deploy troops to Niger, marking Algeria's first military deployment abroad since 1973. This decision reflects improved relations between Algeria and Niger after previous tensions. Algeria opposed the 2023 coup in Niger, which led to a deterioration in relations. Niger, Mali, and Burkina Faso have formed an alliance to combat insurgents linked to Al-Qaeda and ISIS. Algeria prioritizes stability in the Sahel-Sahara region for regional security. Economic ties have also strengthened, with Algeria's Sonatrach collaborating on energy projects in Niger.
