Скачать или смотреть Trump Adds Nigeria to Watch List, Warns of “Existential Threat” to Christians | Boko Haram Attacks

U.S. President Donald Trump said on Friday (October 31) that Christianity faces an "existential threat" in Nigeria and he was adding the West African nation to a State Department watch list for countries of "particular concern."

Trump's comments come as Al-Qaeda–linked militant group, a Jama'at Nusrat al-Islam wal-Muslimin (JNIM), has claimed responsibility for an attack that killed a soldier in central Nigeria this week, its first known attack in the country.

Nigeria is battling an Islamist insurgency led by Boko Haram and Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP) that has killed tens of thousands and displaced more than two million more.
