据法国一家日报报道，上个月两名尼日尔情报人员被迫离开法国，其中一名人员涉嫌在法国境内监视尼日尔的反对派人士。这是自2023年尼日尔发生军事政变以来，两国关系持续恶化的又一例证。
Two Nigerien intelligence officers were forced to leave France last month, French daily has revealed, with one agent suspected of monitoring opposition figures on French soil. It is the latest sign of the deterioration in relations between the two countries since Niger’s 2023 military coup.
据一位外交消息人士向法新社透露，法国于上月驱逐了派驻在巴黎尼日尔大使馆的两名情报人员。
France expelled two Nigerien intelligence officers posted at Niger’s embassy in Paris last month, a diplomatic source told French news agency AFP.
该消息人士周五证实，这两名官员于9月16日被宣布为不受欢迎的人，随后便离开了法国领土。这一消息也印证了此前媒体的相关报道。
The two officials were declared personae non gratae on 16 September and subsequently left French territory, the source said on Friday, confirming an earlier report by .
“这两人均为尼日尔情报部门的人员，鉴于目前法国与尼日尔之间缺乏合作，他们已没有继续留在法国的理由，”该消息人士说道。
“They are two agents from the Nigerien intelligence services who no longer had any reason to be present given the lack of cooperation” between France and Niger, the source said.
另据该媒体报道，援引尼日尔方面的消息称，其中一名官员涉嫌对居住在法国的尼日尔反对派人士实施监视活动。
According to , citing a Nigerien source, one of the officers was suspected of carrying out surveillance activities targeting Nigerien opposition figures living in France.
自2023年7月26日阿卜杜拉赫曼·蒂亚尼将军及其他军官推翻尼日尔民选总统穆罕默德·巴祖姆以来，巴黎与尼亚美之间的关系便急剧恶化。法国拒绝承认尼日尔的新政权，并始终视巴祖姆为尼日尔的合法国家元首。作为回应，尼日尔军政府也彻底切断了该国与昔日殖民宗主国之间长期保持的密切政治与军事联系。
Relationship breakdown Relations between Paris and Niamey have been severely strained since the military takeover of 26 July 2023, when General Abdourahamane Tiani and other officers overthrew Niger’s democratically elected president, Mohamed Bazoum. France refused to recognise the new authorities and continued to regard Bazoum as Niger’s legitimate head of state. The junta responded by dismantling the close political and military relationship that Niger had maintained with its former colonial power.
2023年8月下旬，尼日尔军政府下令法国大使西尔万·伊泰离境。起初法国拒绝了这一要求，坚称只有尼日尔的合法政府才有权下令驱逐大使。这一争端导致尼亚美的法国大使馆周边局势紧张，最终法国于次月撤回了伊泰。
Niger’s junta marks three years amid rising violence and lost freedoms In late August 2023, the military authorities ordered the French ambassador, Sylvain Itté, to leave the country. France initially rejected the demand, arguing that only Niger’s recognised government had the authority to expel him. The dispute led to a tense stand-off around the French embassy in Niamey, before Paris eventually withdrew Itté the following month.
尼日尔的军方统治者还废除了与法国的军事合作协议，并要求驻扎在该国的约1500名法军士兵撤离。
Niger’s military rulers also scrapped military cooperation agreements with France and demanded the departure of around 1,500 French troops stationed in the country.
最后一批法军士兵于2023年12月离开尼日尔，这标志着法国在萨赫勒地区最重要的军事合作伙伴关系之一就此终结。
The last French soldiers left Niger in December 2023, ending what had been one of France’s most important military partnerships in the Sahel.
外交关系生变：当月晚些时候，法国采取了不同寻常的举措——关闭驻尼亚美大使馆，称由于尼日尔当局实施种种限制措施，使馆已无法正常开展工作。
Shifting alliances France took the unusual step later that month of closing its embassy in Niamey, saying the mission could no longer operate normally because of restrictions imposed by the Nigerien authorities.
法国政府称，其外交人员遭遇了封锁及其他阻碍，导致正常的外交工作无法进行。
The French government said its diplomats had faced blockades and other obstacles that made normal diplomatic work impossible.
不过，尽管双边关系急剧恶化，尼日尔驻巴黎大使馆依然照常运作。
Despite the collapse in relations, however, Niger’s embassy in Paris remained open.
与此同时，尼日尔正逐渐向俄罗斯靠拢，同时与法国及其他西方伙伴渐行渐远。
Niger has meanwhile moved closer to Russia while distancing itself from France and other Western partners.
蒂亚尼政府还加强了与邻国马里、布基纳法索的联系；这两个国家同样由军方执政，且也在努力深化与莫斯科的合作关系。
Tiani’s government has also strengthened ties with neighbouring Mali and Burkina Faso, which are likewise ruled by military governments and have pursued closer cooperation with Moscow.
布基纳法索、马里和尼日尔共同推出了名为“塔福克”的电视频道，用以传播各自的观点。三国试图通过“萨赫勒国家联盟”来协调国防与外交政策，并减少对西方军事及外交伙伴的依赖。
Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger launch Tafouk TV channel to push their own narrative The three countries have sought to coordinate their defence and foreign policies through the Alliance of Sahel States, while reducing their reliance on Western military and diplomatic partners.
对法国而言，与尼日尔关系的破裂只是其从该地区全面撤出的一部分：过去巴黎曾在该地区拥有广泛的军事与政治影响力。
For France, the breakdown with Niger forms part of a wider retreat from a region where Paris once maintained extensive military and political influence.
近年来，由于与马里、布基纳法索的军方政府发生争执，法军也相继从这两个国家撤出。
French troops have also withdrawn from Mali and Burkina Faso in recent years following disputes with their respective military governments.
2025年9月，法国驱逐了两名派驻在马里驻巴黎大使馆的官员。此前，一名法国情报人员曾在巴马科被捕，马里当局指控其参与了未遂政变。经过数月羁押后，该情报人员于今年8月获得赦免并获释。
In September 2025, France expelled two officials posted at Mali's embassy in Paris. It followed the arrest of a French intelligence agent in Bamako, who Malian authorities accused of involvement in an attempted coup. After several months in detention, the agent was pardoned and released in August this year.
