Russia is making a play they are in the Central African Republic. The US development finance institution just got $60 billion earmarked by Congress for African private sector investments. Africa is ripe for opportunities and growth the US is just late to the party.

It makes sense for the states. Why let Europeans and Asian countries control a continent with so many resources when you can "liberate" them and have direct access. The only losers in that perfect world would be colonial countries and China.
Literally all the cobalt you'd need to manage technological supremacy is locked in that continent. All the plutonium/uranium you could need. It's the youngest continent and America lending an actual helping hand rather than raping it of its resources would be a new tactic. And one that probably would help them in the long run.
The problem is America is inherently, historically and systemically racist. That's their biggest hurdle to overcome.

china, the west, etc... is going to come into africa, and africans cant stop it.... so its up to african leadership to use the investments to their benefit......
What is new? Cacs are masters of manipulation when it comes to acquiring resources and and China is taking cues while tha various governments that constitute Africa are left dazed and confused trying to react, with alot of their leaders cashing out for themselves and throwing up tha deuces towards their people.
I'm sorry, did they said China hit somebody with a LASER BEAM?!

They are late, US foreign policy on the continent was almost run through Europe as a proxy with the US happy to take a backseat. There were occasions when they intervened like Angola and Ethiopia when the Soviets/Cubans really escalated their presence but the economic ties were never as strong as the ties Africa had with Europe. I was watching a documentary on the British Foreign Office and they were talking about how the country had slipped down the ranks of Nigeria's trading partners behind China and India and one of the diplomats remarked that China is doing a lot of partnerships on infrastructure and the UK could not possibly catch up, they wound up talking about security policy and the EPL even. American foreign policy has been largely about security, trying to whereas China came in on an economic partnership angle which the West could not possibly catch up. All anyone needed to get US support was to claim to be anti-communist and they would support any group that opposed nationalists in their countries.
