Do Africa's leaders have a ‘game plan' to deal with Trump?
Former African Union diplomat Arikana Chihombori argues that Trump's Africa policy is 'a step in the right direction'. Africa's leaders have no one to blame but themselves if they cannot reach equitable trade deals with the United States, argues the former representative of the African Union to the US, Arikana Chihombori-Quao. Chihombori-Quao tells host Steve Clemons that US President Donald Trump's 'trade, not aid' policy opens up 'an opportunity that African leaders were not awarded by the colonisers, the European nations, when they set out to exploit the continent of Africa'. She adds that African leaders should not allow themselves to be bullied by Trump, 'because he has what you need, you also have what he wants'.

Addis Ababa The African Union has expressed its appreciation for the pivotal role played by the State of Qatar in facilitating the signing of the peace agreement between the Government of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and the Congo River Alliance/March 23 Movement (M23), which took place in Doha on Saturday. In a statement, Chairperson of the African Union Commission HE Mahmoud Ali Youssouf applauded the State of Qatar's sincere efforts in promoting peace and stability across the African continent. He commended the constructive role of the United States administration, as well as the valuable contributions made by regional partners, including the East African Community (EAC) and the Southern African Development Community (SADC). "This significant development marks a major milestone in the ongoing efforts to achieve lasting peace, security, and stability in eastern DRC and the wider Great Lakes region," the statement said. The State of Qatar hosted in Doha on Saturday the signing ceremony of a Declaration of Principles between the Government of the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the Congo River Alliance/M23; a move that marks a key step forward in the ongoing efforts to restore peace and stability in eastern Congo. The signing of the declaration is the result of Qatar's diplomatic efforts over recent months, during which it worked to create a conducive environment for constructive dialogue between the parties, paving the way for a peaceful resolution to the long-standing conflict in the region.
