Vice President Kamala Harris has said that the United States will increase investment in Africa and help spur economic growth as she began a week-long tour of the continent aimed at countering the influence of rivals Russia and China.

China has invested heavily in Africa in recent decades, including in infrastructure and resource development, while Russian influence has also grown, including through the deployment of troops from the private military contractor Wagner Group in several countries.

“On this trip, I intend to do work that is focused on increasing investments here on the continent and facilitating economic growth and opportunity,” Harris said on Sunday shortly after touching down in Ghana, the first destination in a trip that will include visits to Tanzania and Zambia.

“We are looking forward to this trip as a further statement of the long and enduring very important relationship and friendship between the people of the United States and those who live on this continent,” Harris said.

The administration of President Joe Biden has sought to strengthen ties with Africa, in part to offer an alternative to rival powers, amid global competition over the continent’s future.

Irrelevant if it comes with strings attached. Imagine a nation like Uganda being offered a Russian, Chinese, and an American development grant/loan. But only one of these has requirements for LGBT integration. Which do you think Ugandans will pick?

Same could be said for a nation like Ethiopia where US is choosing political winners with their funding; while China and Russia are hands off.


Before the passing of their prior leader , Tanzania was also put in a death grip by US secondary agendas and would easily have gravitated to the Chinese sphere of influence. I doubt this trip would happen if Magafuli were still alive

I hear you but we have been doing this for a long time
Our finesse game is immaculate
Strong arm steady too,for countries that may need a little more shove in the right direction
