💨 Abstract

President Donald Trump met with leaders from five African nations, shifting the United States' approach from aid to trade. He emphasized the economic potential of Africa and the U.S. as a better partner than China. African leaders praised Trump and encouraged U.S. investment. Trump's administration aims to reduce foreign aid and focus on commercial engagement, despite concerns from African officials about U.S. trade practices. The encounter marked an effort to counter China's influence in Africa.
