The Biden administration got a wake-up

Africa could be forced to toe the line by

sanctions and intimidation. That didn't work.

Now the tone has changed towards 

cooperation and negotiation. Fine.

The arrogance of the first half of the year,

perhaps  pushed by the neocons in the administration, had to give way, in the

light of dismal failure. The administration realized,  too, that anti-French sentiment

 is on the rise, paving the way  for more pro- Russian inroads. Malian documentation

of direct  French support to the jihadists

has not helped.

View in browser August 31, 2022 Biden's Africa strategy seeks to revitalize ties with the continent   U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken's trip to Africa this month—the third in under a year—is a demonstration of the Biden administration's growing commitment to Africa. Witney Schneidman and Landry Signé examine the outcomes of the visit and the recently released U.S. strategy toward sub-Saharan Africa.   Read more Intra-African trade has been underestimated for years   Hardly a presentation is made on the topic of the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) without starting with a lamentation about how intra-African trade is "abysmally low" compared to other continents. But this observation is simply not true, Andrew Mold explains in a recent paper.   Read more   Learn more about intra-African trade and regional economic communities on the Foresight Africa podcast.
