Niger’s President Mohamed Bazoum is in good health after being taken captive by his own presidential guard according to the French foreign minister.
Catherine Colonna told AFP news agency the coup was not “final”.
She said Mr Bazoum had spoken to Emmanuel Macron and added there was a “way out” for the coup plotters if they listened to the global community.
On Thursday, coup supporters attacked the headquarters of the ousted president’s party.
They set it on fire, stoning and burning cars outside. The small group of arsonists had broken away from a larger show of support for the coup leaders outside parliament, where Russian flags were on show.
The army has now given its backing to the troops who detained Mr Bazoum on Wednesday. Russia has joined other countries and the UN in calling for his release.
The 64-year-old was elected as Niger’s president two years ago, and has been a key Western ally in the fight against Islamist militants in West Africa.
The US and France, the former colonial power, both have military bases in the uranium-rich country – and have strongly condemned the coup.
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken called up Mr Bazoum promising Washington’s “unwavering support”.
The United Nations (UN) said it has suspended its humanitarian operations in Niger. It is unclear whether the coup was the reason behind the suspension.
The UN has previously said more than four million people in Niger are in need of humanitarian assistance.
On Thursday, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres demanded the release of Mr Bazoum “immediately and unconditionally”.
Mr Bazoum tweeted a defiant statement on Thursday morning: “The hard-won achievements will be safeguarded. All Nigeriens who love democracy and freedom will see to it.”
His foreign minister has also been trying to rally support and urge dialogue, but the army chief of staff said he was backing the takeover to avoid fighting within the armed forces.
It remains unclear who is really in charge of Niger as the junta has not announced its leader.
State TV has been repeating the late-night coup announcement interspersed with patriotic music and Quranic verses – and its usual lunchtime news bulletin was not aired.
But in the capital, Niamey, shops and markets opened for business and after delays due to heavy rain early in the morning, coup supporters took to the streets.
The hundreds who gathered outside the National Assembly had some Russian flags, while others held up hand-written signs saying: “Down with France” and “Foreign bases out”.
Police later fired tear gas to disperse those who had gone to the headquarters of the ruling party, where party activists ran away when they saw the protesters coming.
Some people were injured in the fracas and the burnt-out carcasses of vehicles now surround the PNDS Tarraya party building.
The coup supporters accuse the party of corruption and not doing enough to improve the security situation and end the long-running jihadist insurgency.
Two neighbouring countries, Mali and Burkina Faso, have experienced coups triggered by Islamist uprisings in recent years.
In both countries the new military leaders have moved closer to Russia after falling out with France.
A number of well-known pro-Kremlin commentators on Telegram – one of the few major social media platforms not banned in Russia – have been posting comments in support of the coup, saying it is an opportunity for Russia and Wagner to get into Niger.
For the moment, there is no evidence of any Russian involvement in this takeover. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said constitutional order in Niger should be restored, Reuters says, quoting Russia’s state-owned Tass news agency.
Some civil society groups in Niger have been calling for a move away from France and towards Russia in recent weeks.
The junta has reprimanded France for violating the closure of the country’s borders after a military plane landed at an air-force base on Thursday morning.
