Niger's coup leaders have met with the new interim government.
It comes as tensions are escalating between the junta and neighbouring countries.

A 21-member cabinet was named hours before leaders of the West African bloc ECOWAS met on Thursday.
The group announced a standby force, which could intervene in the country if the military continue their hold on power.
Thousands of coup supporters rallied against the decision in Niamey on Friday.
