At the start of Barack Obama’s presidency
in 2009, China surpassed the United States as Africa’s top trade partner. As
Chinese engagement in Africa continued to diversify, President Obama ushered in
an Africa foreign policy that included events such as
the U.S.-Africa Leaders’ Summit as well as commitments under Power
Africa and Trade Africa. Now, how will the respective roles of the United States and China in Africa
change during the Trump administration? Will existing opportunities for constructive
trilateral collaboration remain, or will they need to be modified? How will
African countries respond to these shifts? This roundtable will draw on the
public and private sectors to explore the future of U.S.-China-Africa relations
in an evolving geopolitical landscape.
