Irrelevant if it comes with strings attached. Imagine a nation like Uganda being offered a Russian, Chinese, and an American development grant/loan. But only one of these has requirements for LGBT integration. Which do you think Ugandans will pick?
Same could be said for a nation like Ethiopia where US is choosing political winners with their funding; while China and Russia are hands off.
Before the passing of their prior leader , Tanzania was also put in a death grip by US secondary agendas and would easily have gravitated to the Chinese sphere of influence. I doubt this trip would happen if Magafuli were still alive
Uganda should stop being a repressive shyt hole thats against human rights while it makes itself an actual attractive place for foreign investment
