💨 Abstract

The article discusses the decline in U.S. influence and presence in Africa, particularly in the Sahel region, which is becoming a global terrorism hotspot. The U.S. lacks resources and staffing at its embassies in Africa, resulting in missteps and missed opportunities to implement policy goals. China's popularity in Africa surpassed the U.S., and Washington has made little progress in accessing African mineral reserves, among other issues.
