africa and trying to combat it. that's not the purpose of this summit. i know david says the us is keen to stress at this summit is no so about competing with china in africa. but of course china paging will nonetheless be watching very closely to see what comes out of it. well hey, i think good david is making is his putting his best foot forward, but a he didn't answer your question, which is does biden understand that he has switched tone? i mean he's, he's at the south american this summer of america's that, that did not go well. it was a bust bosky, at the same thing with us young that he didn't even bother to meet with the has a safe travels washington. ah, hopefully this will be handle better for 49. countries are coming to compare that with 52 countries were a members of the belt road initiative in africa. so, i mean, there's a, there's a lot of work here. i mean, way, david described it early on was, is, if africa had somewhat just come to the attention of us. africa has been there for a long period of time. it's needs are very well known. i'm surprised that you know, i

africa and above all. kenya earned more than a billion us dollars in 2019 someone said once a cup of tea is a cup of the world kenya they say there is no better kenyan tea in the world. indeed, africa has changed and feels much more confident than before, and it has its own views on the world order. from an african point of view, we have lived long enough in a world dominated by west and many parts of the planet. nothing good. it didn't bring. on the contrary, a number of problems have worsened and we in africa see an opportunity to use the multipolar world to strengthen the system of multilateral action. after all, it means a greater number of those who participate in decision-making, the western countries of the eu and the usa, i am sure, should welcome multipolarity. in fact, learning from the rest cannot be the same, that only the global ones are learning and it’s time to learn something, the changes taking place in the world are extremely positive. that's nice, otherwise there is a lot of despondency around. let's be, as we saw the pace, consider the change positive. it was an international review. see y

china in terms of methods, with which the white house is trying to lure the countries of africa to its side, our own us correspondent alexei veselovsky and the america summit from the pool club, now it's the turn of africa itself, where washington invited the leaders of 49 african states to the people of the united states for the people of africa because of the promise and potential of our partnership, raising a glass to africa joe biden. promised the black continent, an unprecedented cooperation of 55 billion dollars over three years, a place for the african union among the g20 countries. and maybe even in the un security council are fully committed to africa and we, along with africa, african voices and innovation are essential to solving the world's most difficult problems, the only thing biden did not mention. this is about the fact that such toasts and speeches were already heard in washington 8 years ago, even under obama , then the white house also promised cooperation and comprehensive cooperation to africa, but things never went beyond words. therefore, the new promise was met, of course, joyf

and what that means for us africa partnership. and what about the did the relationship going forward and, and the level of commitment. i mean, how vital is it for the united states to convince africa that it's not going to forget the continent, you know, years down the line. you know, i think this is the, by the harris administration is a very unique administration in terms of transparency. and in terms of it really, you know, keeping its commitments and in that regard, you know, think about ukraine, russia, you know, it is a situation where not only was the buy inherited ministration, transparent about intelligence, but it's also been, it's, it's kept its word in terms of not abandoning ukraine and such a vulnerable moment. now to be clear, these are 2 completely different situations. but i bring that up as an example because it really is about, you know, what, what do we have to rely on? what can we point to? and i think we can point to the fact that we have not abandon ukraine. and then also, i think that, you know, if there is

the president is keen to underscore the importance of us africa relation. the georgia has a long trouble relationship. it's john russia, which to warn you. crane hasn't made any easier with russian troops into the surfaces regions. a recent influx of russians being mobilization and routing elite with ambiguous links to moscow. it's not surprising. many in georgia see the conflict as a barometer to the future. we went to find out why i ah, when russia invaded ukraine on the 24th of february 2022, few could have imagined how long the war would continue or how significant the wider geo political earthquake would be. especially for ne, by country that of long lived in russia's shadow georgia at the eastern end of the black sea is one of those still reeling from the seismic shock. we had him at broedell, forsaken situation. here, we had bought that in russia. ah, we didn't know what to expect. it has a complex relationship with its giant neighbor, not least because of the ambiguous connections between its current government and the kremlin. almost every day. roc

africa is other partners. china and russia. washington is already calling sales with $15000000000.00 and voice support for the african union . for g 20 membership, the us secretary of defense also tried to accuse russia in china, the stabilizing activities in africa. they responded by urging washington to stop using africa as an arena for power games. however, not all african countries were allowed to attend the u. s. posted summit guinea sedan over tre. molly and bettina also didn't receive an invitation either because they've been suspended from the african union because they lack diplomatic ties with the u. s. we spoke to a number of people from those countries who shared their opinions about us intentions in africa. was a lot in france in the usa rejected in africa. it's due to their politics. this initiative is a way to preserve their image in africa, all wishes to have a trusted partner who is on it to bring good ideas in the right equipment to help us to fight this phenomenon on our territory. it's an opportunity for joe biden to bring the us back to their former position in africa because united states of america are trying to take advantage of

that has been the message at the 1st us africa leaders summit in almost 8 years. after decades of inconsistent engagement, president biden called for a renewed, long term partnership with the african continent. i have aside shared success an opportunity because in africa 6 age united states succeeds quite frankly, the whole world succeeds as well. his recipe for success, pledging more than $55000000000.00 to support african democracy, food security, trade, and infrastructure. biden's pushed to frame the u. s, as a reliable partner comes against a backdrop of rising competition between china and the u. s. over the past 2 decades, china has become africa's largest economic partner investing trillions into infrastructure and development. the u. s. is now trying to catch up. critics say it is forcing african nations to choose between the major powers with the white house insists that the summit is not an attempt to counter china's sizeable influence in africa as well. but the spectre of great power competition looms large, none the less 49 african leaders attended the

what you know, on youtube, business detail didn't use africa coming up on the program. come africa become it. well, lead up in the green energy revolution. what all the bonds, natural resources available on the continent, africa seems like lead pleased to lead the way by what shot and just lie ahead. we'll find out also coming out.

initiative is a way to preserve their image in africa, all wishes to have a trusted partner who is on it to bring good ideas in the right equipment to help us to fight this phenomenon on our territory. it's an opportunity for joe biden to bring the u. s. back to their former position in africa because united states of america are trying to take advantage of it for a long time. we've been under the leadership of europeans, it's them who colonized this and they all the origin of all these things. and i believe the u. s. is targeting europe in place in africa. don't carry out a host of ortiz, the whistleblowers say the us have another reason for not inviting both countries to the summit, even when the new governments of these countries have pledged a return to democracy. and of in some cases scheduled democratic elections. that still wasn't good enough for the united states. and so these 5 countries weren't invited. and i'll add that these 5 countries are 5 that in which the united states can't make any money right now, russia is very popular in africa. china, china is very popular in africa, and the western countries are not there, not becaus

i believe the us is targeting europe's place in africa when we spoke with john kerry arco host of the whistleblowers, who thinks that the real reason for not inviting these countries is a lack of benefit for the you, us. even when the new governments of these countries have pledged a return to democracy and have in some cases scheduled democratic elections that still wasn't good enough for the united states. and so these 5 countries weren't invited, and i'll add that these 5 countries are 5 that in which the united states can't make any money right now, russia is very popular in africa. china, a china is very popular in africa. and the western countries are not. there not because they, they ignored the needs of the child of the african people and the african governments for many, many years. the u. s. presence is literally a one of, of war. the only real u. s. presence in any of these countries is a paramilitary force. look at molly, for example, or mauritania, or any of the other of this a hell countries needs year. we only know by accident because of a leak, that the united states h

it's an opportunity for joe biden to bring the us back to their former position in africa because united states of america are trying to take advantage. if i feel a little bit better, a long time we've been under the leadership of europeans. how are it's them? who colonized us and they are the origin of all these things. i believe the u. s. is targeting europe's place in africa that i don't carry out who hosts, se, the whistleblowers show. think the us had another reason for not inviting those countries to the summit. even when the new governments of these countries have pledged a return to democracy and have in some cases scheduled democratic elections that still wasn't good enough for the united states. and so these 5 countries weren't invited, and i'll add that these 5 countries are 5 that in which the united states can't make any money right now russia is very popular in africa. china, a china is very popular in africa. and the western countries are not. there not because they, they ignored the needs of the child of the african people and the african governments for many, many years.

so trade is also what leaders from africa watch from the us. absolutely, this is, this is what they will be pushing for. in this week, the stage is set with trade on everybody's minds. africa's population is booming, so they'll need to buy more of everything. this is big business, something everyone wants a piece of in order to get it placed, the u. s. knows, but it will have to listen to african voices more than ever before. or let's get out to washington or corresponding mckellar carpenter. she is at the summit. that's taking place in the u. s. capital. because it talk to me then about the role that china is playing in this meeting that we're talking about. oh, bessie is the an elephant in the room head. china has spent those past 8 years between the 1st us africa summit and now heavily investing in relationships, purely transactional relationships with many african countries that have seen many countries also locked into debt towards china. and during, the trompe is, and donald trump at best, completely ignored africa, so there was really no

the currency of central africa can't be used in east africa. it is necessary to convert the money to make a currency exchange. it is a sort of aberration that remains from colonial history. and the subtlety of this currency stays here even so today, there are already ideas about how to transform the situation. because the germans lost their colonies. after that, they lost the war in africa in 1916. and the united nations in the 1920s, deprived them from holding amy authority in those colonies. actually, the colonies were divided between england and france. it means that germany no longer had a presence in africa on the country. during recent years, we can see a sort of comeback and not only on the ground, at the same time that germans raise the problem about how to say it. first about rudolph to all among bell and behind this problem of rudolph to all among bell. there is a reactivation of something that became a collective amnesia because the colonial idea and the accidental end of the colonial idea in germany, marks the end of the war that th

that says something about the, the open temp that the west thin banks and institutions have had to us africa. what china and righteous entry into africa as than is allowed the continent to move on to look is to explore other friendships and not only be tied by friends that hold and know where your finger only to tell us what we can't and cannot do. but here is the chinese official response to that accusation about easy and available chinese money. for sure me, you see what we hoped. the u. s. could view china africa cooperation with an open mind. africa is not an arena for big power game, so let alone the target of arbitrary prussia from any country or person. washington should respect the world, the african people, and take concrete actions to help africa's development. but instead of concentrating its efforts on smearing and attacking other countries, and that is really ally in that america, this i large, used to, they used to live taking turn, or the least still look at africa in separated means. and in their engagement, even the re you to galen. if film freely, much feels like the same m

the event to announce us support the african union becoming a permanent member of the g 20. those are the top stories africa direct is coming up. next, we'll use view straight up to that from our colleagues in doha bye for now. oh after the feller ethan and excitement of the call to find all the remaining people now pride late in the final as the competition intensified. what have been one of the most surprising woke up ever joined us for action and analysis of the semi final product. when you, when you do on all day, is there a hardy cant. oh, oh money. oh no. i no good. you sure of and i bought a week is live. so the to be a means of gone no more than angelica many men, sir. ma'am? very barbara, no, no, i don't blame. said he is there it is. i was glad i go away. you gonna only get down when you are muddy. oh, okay. muddy care. oh god, i can't power my brother glee giga. that indiana jones, a woodman, the rod. so yeah, i'm gonna get v as a begin next. said alive, there was a v as that would be, can also may by mouth i was with. and so i was a little brain, give them a common mark. and the only thing i did

business detail didn't use africa coming up on the program. come africa become it well, lead up into green energy revolution. what all the abandons natural resources available on the continent. africa seems perfectly pleased to lead the way. but what challenges lie ahead? we'll find out also coming up. could he bola, be over? in uganda? the country says it has discharged. it's last. mooney bought our patients from hospital raising holds for the end of its latest outbreak. and we meet the congolese born norwegian artists addressing the issues of racism, diversity on colony allison you have fast so low exhibition a i am eddie micah junior and you are welcome to the program. now could africa become elidah in supplying green fuel to the wild? but question has become even more relevant to us. russia continues its innovation of ukraine creating disruption in europe's energy supplies. germany is one of the countries scrambling for alternatives, including on the african continent. this week, the country's minister of economy and climate roberts havoc

africa league. thank you very much for joining us this afternoon. i know you're currently in africa. can you tell us about the challenges that you're facing there? well, thank you for paying attention to this very important, sir. oh yes, because we have for seen increasing challenges for the children in our region. a year just mentioned the horn of africa. so these are the 3 countries, somalia, canyon, ethiopia, and i'm based in kenya, and we have for our colleagues all across the year. 3 countries seeing a tremendous deterioration of the situation of the children in these countries that are affected by dropped. you just mentioned that had said them severe as droughts in many years and the fact that in for 2 years. and unfortunately, we are going to the 6 field reigning season, making the situation even worse, and we really need to prepare for the worst case scenario. so or less rain is again, less walter, less livelihoods, and increased acute mountain krisha disease outbreak. and of course of food insecurity across those 3 countries that are really affected severely by the draft . ye

then all of a sudden in august this year, and then he blinkin was an africa the us think secretary, he was visiting 3 country, south africa, the dnc and rwanda. somehow managing to squeeze them into his busy schedule. but this knee jerk tall was also in res once and to counter the tor by long serving foreign minister of russia, sergey lover of the united states will not dictate africa's choices and neither should any one else. too often, african nations have been treated as instruments of other nations progress rather than the authors of their own. washington's economic interest in the continent relief that in waning about 2011 when crude oil exports to the united states that a dwindling but even the much hyped african groves and opportunities act, or a go of a shot that the deal found between north america and sub saharan africa for goods to be access in the american market duty free, but even vet, upon the year of his renewal in 2015 give this. the trade between the countries was down $8000000000.00. critic say the united states. views africa as a situation to be handled rather than

none of these plans have really got off the ground africa only accounts a one percent of us. foreign trade is a real danger here. but despite all the rhetoric and the lofty ambitions, the u. s. is framing africa. i mean, no one to china, it's filling that geo political space. no, i don't think that we're still a africa. i think that we have shown by there's somebody that we are back in that we are willing to engage. as i said, 600000007400000 from x, and there are large deals or small deals from general electric to nigeria, l a and the u. s. s. e r. renewable energy. their transportation deals there were you sign with the africa export import export bank. so i don't think that in terms of the information that you have, nothing to positive examples really show what the re imagining and the rebuilding of the relationship really gauge. and i that that's actual money on the table, those with deals that okay, so those are not lofty ambitions, but those are actually hard or deals that rack and bustle. robin sound is really good to get your thoughts on your analysis. thank you very much. ind

it was the top story, stay with us. africa's i rate is coming up next. that thanks for your company season. what's going on in vitamin putin's mind right now, could this war go? nuclear is being on that front team, the golden ticket, the electoral victory. can americans agree on any immigration policy? is there a middle ground between 0 tolerance and open border? the quizzical look at us politics. the bottom line. ah ah, ah, he's in the room now. ponder dawn, don't i said my glass handing with almost soon to cool, but anger dellagorzo longer. one was a d r. i was evident luggage guardians began mostly to produce blank. why then what our own got off. i bought a new lead to call miss r dondo boys. angela, gosh, i'm a gar on fuzzy regarding a bush bull gosh to boys. it would been different. zip ground to barbara owen, dra he or glee. oh, didn't they? fazio golden star game? varden. but oh dan, docile. bill allison dark or from god bill fall. it didn't deal book fish. and guy wasn't amazon and unbuckled. i wondered, go, go. st. louis, missouri. william is an

actually done nothing in africa that they haven't been present in 2013 or year before the lat, africa, us summit, president obama came to south africa and cape town, made a huge promise. he had america would bring light to darkness, and they would install 30 gigawatts of power. well, now in 2022 and they've installed, helped install a new poll gala. and at this place, it would take until 2050 to fulfill obama promise. so america has actually been absent on this continent, and they shouldn't complain that trade with china is now full time. the amount of the trade with us trade was china is $254000000000.00 and trade with america. is them yet $60000000000.00? so america really should reflect on his priorities, but that they want to continue to think that this has been doc continent. and that maybe as a little hand all give us a little bit of light or whether they begin to take a series, the 54 sovereign nation states that have a voice internationally and national relations. and that have opted to stay out of the american proxy war against russia. in the seattle ukraine, africa has remained

and, and what's happening at the summit today while the us africa business forum is under way several hours are paneled discussions with heads of state business leaders, u. s. government officials, i've been listening in it's been rather platter june. us so far just, you know, general statements about the potential for africa in the future. but that discussions about trade investments, agribusiness, the digital digital future secretary state lincoln will be addressing that forum in a few hours time. but everything is actually meeting up ready to present biden's address, to the forum at 1830 gmc abroad waiting to see what it also tone he strikes would constantly be being told that actually know though the u. s. isn't making africa choose between china rusher and the us. we respect african jo, strategic decisions, or are we looking for that for that turn? the hope i think liter 0 hope are going to be less of the you know, you africans are being naive. you don't seem to realize that china is using use to turn that we often hear from us, secure national security and foreign policy officia

we host the 1st us africa leaders summit, including us africa business form. we saw so clearly the enormous potential that we could harness if we did it together and holding the 1st of its kind summit. 2014 was a watershed moment to cement new kinds of partnership between our nations. partnerships not to create political obligation, not or foster defendants dependence, but to spur shared success. i emphasize shared success an opportunity because in africa succeeds the united states succeeds quite frankly, the whole world succeeds as well. now, a years later, the world was undergone. a great many changes were still grappling with the deadly pandemic, facing down war and instability. addressing economic challenges with global impact fighting, fighting, rising food prices, tackling the impacts of climate change in each of these crises as ali hiding, hiding the vital role african nations and peoples play. to address the global challenges drive our global progress. we can't solve any of these challenges without african leadership at the table and not, not trying to

they must take a page out of what africa is doing. lead said this chinese people didn't used to be that way. but they quickly changed their strategy. when they realized that the game they were playing was not going away in africa. they changed their strategy. and that's why, like i said, i say during my tenure, i'll continue to say again, if this was a basketball game, the united states need to call for time out. this is a new game and it requires new rules of engagement. the united states must 1st and foremost, make sure that racism is out of the picture. africans, i just as much as anybody else africans are equal. and until we engage as equals, all this meetings, all these conversations are always going to be useless and it goes back to the individuals who are going to be at the table with the africans. so the u. s. also need to address the issue of racism. and not sure that the people engage in africa, their minds are clear and accept that africans are equal. tell us about pan african ism, tell us about what africa the states in africa are doing to trade, to connect, to move their ag
