The Economic Community of West African States, ECOWAS, has removed the economic sanctions imposed on Niger Republic, Burkina Faso, Mali and Guinea.
The decision was taken on Saturday, in Abuja, during the extraordinary summit on the political, security, and peace conditions in the ECOWAS sub-region.
The regional bloc, however, said the political and targeted sanctions remain.
Recall that the West African bloc had in a swift response to the military coup in Niger, enforced a no-flight zone over the country.
The Nigerian government also cut off power supply to the military-ruled country to persuade the juntas to restore democracy in the country.
