[RIA] US President Donald Trump again accused Nigerian authorities of crimes against Christians, vowing to cut off American aid if the situation is not rectified, and suggesting that the United States could "enter" the African country.
"If the Nigerian government continues to permit the murder of Christians, the United States will immediately halt all aid to Nigeria and may very well enter that disgraced country... to completely eradicate the Islamic terrorists who are committing these horrific atrocities. I hereby direct the Department of Defense to prepare for possible action," Trump wrote on his social media account, Truth Social.
As the US President stated, if an attack takes place, "it will be hard, fast and smart."

… Congressman Riley Moore, together with Chairman Tom Cole and the House Appropriations Committee, to immediately look into this matter, and report back to me. The United States cannot stand by while such atrocities are happening in Nigeria, and numerous other Countries. We stand ready, willing, and able to save our Great Christian population around the World!"
Awesome from President Trump.
Nigeria is the deadliest country for Christians, with over 60,000 killed and millions displaced in more than a decade of genocidal terrorism, which Islam fueled. The statistics to which Trump referred from World Watch List show that nearly 70% of the Christians killed worldwide in 2024 were Nigerians. In fact, Nigerian clerics just appealed to the U.S. government after a series of deadly attacks this past month.
Under Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, the United States government deliberately removed Nigeria from the list of countries of particular concern for religious freedom violations. The Biden administration and the Democrat Party were and are absolutely shameful in their pandering to Muslims who persecute Christians, whether in Nigeria or in Gaza.
