 :Why is Biden Visiting Africa Now, and why Angola?December 3, 2024December 3, 2024AFRICA TOP 101 min readUS President Joe Biden is visiting Angola weeks before he leaves office. It’s his first bilateral trip to Africa, which many analysts say, represents a final, desperate attempt to fulfil a promise Biden made long ago, and counter China’s expanding influence on the continent. The visit to Luanda will see Biden focus on an $800m US-backed railway project in the Lobito Corridor. The passage is a strategic trade route that connects the resource-rich Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and Zambia to Angola, which hosts the port of Lobito, located on the Atlantic Ocean.SOURCE: AL JAZEERA
