The US has declared that Gabon experienced a coup, according to the State Department.

In a recent announcement, the United States has officially stated that a military coup has occurred in the country of Gabon. The U.S. State Department made this declaration on Monday, affirming their belief that the government’s power has been unlawfully seized by the military. As a consequence, the United States has decided to suspend the majority of its assistance to Gabon’s government.

This move by the U.S. reflects their strong stance against actions that undermine democratic processes and institutions. By withholding assistance, the United States aims to send a clear message of disapproval to the leaders responsible for the coup. It also serves as a signal to the international community that such actions will not be tolerated. The decision to suspend aid is a firm step taken by the U.S. to support the principles of democracy and uphold the rule of law.
