The day Argentina fell to dictatorship: March 24, 1976

Recommendable, but a partisan and biased documentary! Very little was e.g. reported about the leftist violent guerilla activities during the military dictatorship from 1976-1983.

Very little was also said about the socialist Peronism that preceded the military putsch!

Well, what do you expect from a leftist German state owned public broadcaster like Deutsche Welle!

One Year After Niger's military Coup

Bad news! France out, but Russia and China in!

"... Niger’s junta has significantly altered its international and regional partnerships away from the West in its first year of power. Al Qaeda and IS militants have carried out deadlier attacks and consolidated control over more territory since the junta took power by taking advantage of security force limitations that the withdrawal of Western support has contributed to. ISSP’s advance creates more opportunities for it to contribute to transnational IS activity. The Nigerien junta’s counterinsurgency approach will likely increase communal violence and civilian casualties more broadly, and Niger’s new security partners will likely be unable to fully address Niger’s capacity and capability gaps to overcome this poor strategy.
Nigerien Economic Activity. The Nigerien junta has also sought to address economic challenges that could threaten regime stability by working with China, Iran, Russia, and Turkey to secure quick revenue. ..."
