Trump's African opportunity

As President-elect Donald Trump prepares to reenter the White House, he faces a world markedly different from the one he left.

War rages in Europe, the Middle East is once again in turmoil, and China is more emboldened and belligerent than ever. Compounding these challenges is the steady fraying of America’s traditional alliances, especially in Europe, where decades of political, economic, and strategic neglect have left once-reliable partners diminished and consumed by a self-inflicted civilizational crisis. To safeguard U.S. interests in an increasingly volatile world, Washington must diversify its partnerships. Africa, a continent Trump once infamously disparaged, merits a fresh look.
