How did the national meetings held in February influence the current political situation in Niger?

General Tiani's ascension to the presidency and highest military rank solidifies the junta's control over Niger. The new national charter, which he enacted, dissolves political parties, allows for referendums on foreign military bases, and potentially enables the current leadership to run in future elections. This charter also sets a minimum five-year rule for the junta, adjustable based on the security situation.
