Is it time for a ‘reset’ of the US strategy in Africa? | The Bottom Line
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 июн 2024
- The days of Africa's resources being used to benefit Western powers instead of the African people are dwindling, argues the former representative of the African Union to the United States, Arikana Chihombori-Quao.
Although a string of recent coups may give the impression that African nations are turning their back on the West, and looking more towards Russia and China, this is an oversimplification, according to the former diplomat.
She tells The Bottom Line host Steve Clemons that the US would be wise to decouple its policy from that of France if it wants to regain trust on the continent.

This is the boldness we need in Africa. Kudos to you Mama.
Absolutely 💯
something needs to change in africa- seeing the only future for africans is to pack themselves in leaky boats and throw themselves at the mercy of europeans - it's sad to see how much africa has failed. even this woman was speaking from america - africa couldn't give her a future...
MaMA AFREEKA@@maliksy7746 SPEAKING TRUTH & RIGHTS
Mu yama mu ye, mu yama mu ye Africa.... wipe your tears , wipe your tears Africa... every human being deserves a life of dignity. Maybe now is your time once and for all.
You from Ghana😂
"We don’t need aid, we need trade" powerful statement.
Trade that will benefit the people of the former French colonies. Good schools, infrastructure, clean water, hospitals, etc. Every African country should have this, and much more. This will require STRONG leaders, that love their people.
They give us aid after stealing all our resources?🙆🏽♂️
Yet they have the balls give us killing conditions on that so called aid🤷🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
What you said, we can choose China. The fact also proves that China is more trustworthy than the United States. At least we don't have to worry about the US military blowing up our country into ruins. Don't worry about the slave trade, plantation economy, and only 3% of the mining revenue.
Then be stable democracy
@@Imissyoulou Trade is what gets you that.
She's hitting the nails into the right places than most leaders I've heard discussing the need for changes on the African continent
Dr. Arikana has rightly communicated what is on the minds of African youth across the entire continent, both at home and abroad. Thanks, Mama Africa. God bless you.
There is so much anger in Africa now. You have no idea. She is a reflection of what is being expressed in the African nations.
Africans have all the right to be angry. 400+ years of oppressions, looting, and much more. She's a voice just like there are tons of voices for outsiders.
Exactly...she is pouring exactly what is in my heart.
I wish we had aboriginal Australians speakers like her too long black people all over the world have been at the bottom because of colonism
So true 👌
We don't want aid, we need fair trade and not hypocrisy!!🇰🇪
stupid mis-directed futile anger, actually..
She is the type of leader and a voice we need in Africa ❤❤❤
Africans dying in the sea on little boats and Africa is not doing anything thatś how much Africa cares about Africans. Just look at the list of countries that banned slavery a lot of African countries banned slavery last. Africa doesn´t need flashy screamers but, silent and honest people that work day and night without reward in modesty. It will take many generations to bridge the gap if that is even the goal.
She's on POINT 👉 👈 👇 👌 👏 🙌
she is a fraud, a strong supporter of zimbabwe´s ruling elite
She is full of distorted spiteful ranting.
@blessedbotam3676, Indeed!
By the way, let's start brainstorming about the near future african government:
1. Dr. Arikana Chihombori: President;
2. Julius Malema: Vice-president;
3. Patrick P.O. Lumumba: Minister of Foreign Affairs;
4. Nathalie Yamb: Vice-Minister of Foreign Affairs;
5. Chimamanda Adichie: Minister of Education;
6. Joshua Maponga: Vice-Minister of Education;
7. Ibrahim Traoré: Minister of Defense;
8. Assimi Goita: Vice-Minister of defense;
9. Abdourahmane Tchiani: Chief of the Staff (for the military);
10. Mamady Doumbouya: Vice-Chief of Staff;
9. Need more names of potencial african leaders, not puppets...😊😊😊😊
She is entirely correct. The west has done this to many nations, including those on the continents of Asia, Africa, and South America. It is terrible that so much suffering has occurred in these nations. Many people, including myself and my family, migrate to the west in search of a better life, as a result of the allure of the west's glitz and splendor; however, the west is also characterized by a strong slave mentality. There's the 1% of the wealthy, and the rest of us slaves who work day and night to pay our bills. A large percent of our income is taxed to support infrastructure at home but we're also funding wars abroad. It's really sick what's happening. There is enough food to go around. No child should be dying because he or she has no food, especially if their country is being raped of their natural resources.
Exactly
Look what China and Turkey 🇹🇷 has done in only 20 years I traveled Africa my all life I see a lot of change France has done nothing absolutely nothing
America 🇺🇸 and Britain 🇬🇧 next . No more parasites relationship with you, amongst Africa and Africans
And the Carribbean nations as well.
What is the bigger problem for the African peoples? Western Influence or Corrupt African leaders?
This lady deserves all the respect of the world. You are truly amazing.
I love this woman. She speaks for the whole world.
I think she nailed it. Time for European Colonials who had abused Africa for decades and the US begin to be extorted by the trillions that will go to developing infrastructure, agriculture, education and other value added aspects to ALL OF AFRICA that is Africa-centric, NOT WESTERN nations telling how it must be spent.
Yeah very intelligent.
no..same old same old tired bullshit..
,7 9
I like her ideology about Africa but I can't take her seriously because her kids married whites
Whenever this woman starts speaking I feel like she shouldn't end. She gives me a real lecture that any African would take time to listen to
True, she single handedly laid the foundation for what is happening in west Africa today, for the past 6 years she has been creating awareness and educating Africans and black nation in general on how France is raping Africa and today we are seeing results.
@@de-sh109 it's upon Zimbabwe and Ghana now to always offer her security otherwise these imperialists might take her to meet her creator before the mission is fully accomplished
@@justusmwesiga6723
Dr.Arakana knows that and that why she has been preaching to the African youth.Almight Allah is protecting her. Even if “they” take her out.The result is speaking loundly in Mali,Burkino Faso,Niger,Guinne and (Gabon)
I really appreciate the ambassador
What a bold and straight conversation she gave the world
Love from Bangladesh ❤
This woman needs to be protected at all costs ❤
Ambassador , I am from India. Hats off to you. May Allah bless you. Africa and the world needs people like you. Respect you from the depth of heart.

😂😂. "We're sick and tired of giving our lunch money to Western nations." Best statement this year.
On point
She is a powerful voice for Africa. Her contributions in this space of Africa's emancipation have woken up many Africans
This is a Realistic and powerful speech by this honourable African lady all African leaders must understand and adopt!!
I really love how he allows her to state facts without being interrupted. 🔥🔥💯💯👌👌
People revelation in the country.
Puppet president.
Absolutely
Imagine if it were cnn...
Hahaha
She is trust worthy than all ECOWAS head of state period!!!

Being trust worthy and knowing what you're doing and having good strategy are two different things
ECOWAS are true slaves of the west disguised as “leaders”
@@cocoday6215
Again, trust alone doesn't get the job done but it is good.
I don't trust her though, making such blatantly false statements and riding on sentiments and ignorance. You can want good things for africa but you must move with the truth as well
@@blackblaze5271 please share what false statements she made, enlighten us.
@@allanluis3696
That france is the biggest issue in africa 😄 What a big joke. People keep claiming france was one of the worst colonialists, it's as if they don't know any history.
Powerful talk, Dr Arikana. It’s heartbreaking that in 2023 we are still talking about the western world treating Africa and Africans as equals. Big shame on our leaders who keep acting as pawns in their games. We need more leaders like you speaking out and taking clear actions against imperialism, neocolonialism, and their siblings.
This woman is smart, well informed and she speaks truth to the bully nations.
Preach it Dr Arikana, our true African sister. Africa is our motherland and we are in the process of liberating it from these former colonial thieves.
... such a true african sister she now lives in america.... is she a colonialist thief?
@@Jennyeq Reminds me of bob marley, sung Africa unite and it was censored in apartheid South Africa.. they bleeped the word united.. so much a threat he was denied a chance to perform in SA and instead performed in Zimbabwe. We are not African because of where we are born or where we stay.. we are African because Africa is born in Us.. most of us on these platforms do not stay in Africa, she also ended up America because of her ambassador role and maybe got a job there.. but our dream is to stop wasting our talent that is often not appreciated in these countries and enjoy true happiness back in Africa.. because trust me as much as anyone may deny, Africa is the greatest continent to ever exist.. our dream is never to stay abroad but to go back and live the greatest dream on earth.. the African dream..
@@JennyeqYou completely misunderstand the point. This isn't a pushback against the people of the West, but the wolves that lead them. If they had any sense, they'd be fighting the wolves too, because those mf's aren't acting in their interests either.
Liberating Africa from colonial thieves? Liberating? But hasn’t Africa been accepting huge infusions of cash from China and Russia lately? Do you wonder what they will expect in return? I fear you may have just replaced the devil you know, for the devil you don’t. Did you consider the new devil may be worse than the old one?
@@drequploads6142what makes it the greatest continent to ever exist? just curious…most folk would say their homeland is the greatest because that’s where they are from…it’s subjective
she just spoke the truth. deserves my appreciation
This warms my heart. We are proud and happy to hear such news. African youth we have been waiting. 1990s babies we have been crying for a change like this. Now start putting young people with fresh minds and skills in power and see how Africa will fly through the roof
Africa needs more of this. I wish African leaders were this bold in keeping each other to account where leadership is concerned as well.
Steve you have done an excellent interview of our African Queen. You really set the scenario for her response in an African point view. France has been part of all French colonies underdevelopment and destabilization of North East of Nigeria by funding and arming boko haram all in a bid to continue exploiting Africa. If Africa wants to develop it must surrender to France.
The military take over is not by itself the solution to the problem if they also will pursue the same agenda as the civilian governments romancing with France while they loot Africa.
The military must seek for knowledge to govern with patriotism and decency to improve the quality of life of their citizens. To achieve that, the military leaders must collaborate with civilian professionals in each and every field to design policies and programs supported by well laid out financial management of their respective nation’s economies. Anything bereft that is just a waste of energy. Corruption is the main sickness of most or almost all African leaders and their cronies. If a lid is not placed on corruption the emancipation of Africa and it’s people will be very difficult. It’s not lack of resources or sources of revenue in Africa but the cheer scale of corruption perpetrated by its leaders and their cronies is the cause of their underdevelopment.
This corruption is not only peculiar to former French colonies but it applied to all the remaining African countries.
Unless leaders in Africa change their attitude towards greed /corruption and instill financial discipline and decorum, what is currently happening in the former French colonies will definitely happen to them and the citizens will support and rejoice their overthrow. Therefore, it’s high time everyone African leader should readjust themselves to work and improved the quality of life of their respective citizens.
The unfortunate thing is that the corruption of politicians doesn’t know bounds and shame. In addition to looting the national treasury, they fill every space available for employment with their relatives and that of their wives leaving the children of the poor masses unemployed. This singular act will definitely breed resentment and add fuel to what encourages revolution among the people.
It’s appropriate to take caution and listen to voices of reason and start sitting up serve their country with passion and patriotism.
I was clapping and shouting the whole interview. Welldone Mummy. Africa has never been defended any better. Kudos to Aljazeera for the transparency and professional journalism ❤❤❤
I am an African man. I am totally embarrassed by the " Well done Mummy" comments. There is our problem. African men always need 'mummy'. They are perpetual children. And the white world knows this.
You are crazy to say that the whole world is going to Economic challenges
Facts. Rise Africa 🌍
Bravo madam,,Africans are attired of being used
❤❤kenya
Always love listening to Dr. A
She’s wise, unafraid, passionate about Africa and the unjust treatment of Africans. We need more like her instead of those puppet leaders
My warmest salute to this great leader for speaking truth and genuinely representing Africans. Great salute to you!
Such a courageous woman, MashaAllah!!!
So focused, so direct, so informed of the connections and real plays behind the scenes.
Thank you Dr Arikana for putting the record straight on the issue of Africa and it's relationship with France. I've been listening to you for the last five years and would beg you to consider taking over the new and reformed African Union. We in the Caribbean are looking forward to seeing a plan to free AFRICANS in the Caribbean, HAITI, and Cuba. Jamaicans support your effort on our behalf.
She sees a lot fake white
@@sabahsabrie1426--> you are a white troll from the gave and that is why you have such a contrary opinion. Afrika is rising and we definitely kick all of you out of the promised land.

How can she takeover a new reformed AU?
You're talking as if it's an open job for application? 😂
Love from Somalia 🇸🇴 to our stolen brothers and sisters in the Americas and Caribbean. May The Most High favour us further and bring us together as One voice and one body, Amin.
Couldn't be more proud of being a ZImbabwean, Dr Arikana a Zimbo with a Zimbo's intellect. Ghana, please keep her safe until we reunite as Africa.
She is proudly the qween of Africa 🌍
@@LeRoux2451 the voting was bad but good at the other side. Mnangagwa and ZANU PF failed Zimbabwe but the CCC leader is a western puppet. He made people think that their suffering is because of the party but people know that it is just because of the US sanctions. No westerner will be trusted in Africa
What a lady for Africa. Agree fully. Africa is important and enough is enough. God bless the continent of Africa and my country SA. ❤❤❤ God bless us. ❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
We called it enough is enough ✌️ United Africa 🌍 💪
Not just France colonies, change must come immediately in all Afrikan countries👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾
I don't think China and Russia will leave without a revolution.

@@Allpro007 Exactly, all the African colonies.
*French
I am from central Europe, but I fully support every word she said. Such an impressive woman with a powerful voice.
This is Mama Africa
Thank you @aljazeera for the unbiased coverage of Africa and her issues. Dr Arikana is what the AU needs
I clicked on this video because of Ghana’s Black Star monument but nothing was said about Ghana 🇬🇭 in this interview.
Better still I love Ambassador Arikana’s deep thoughts. She’s a “Lioness”!
Can totally feel her as a citizen of a formerly colonised country! More power to her and to a United Africa 🌍
US strategy in Africa is that Africa tired of Imperialism and neo-colonialism
agree, the word is out and it moving like wild fire.. Africa is so done with being the slave. If those that was suppose to care about Africa why haven't they helped Africa to build so no African has to live in the dark or in poverty. Look at how many years have went by without true help except forgotten promises and the backstabbing of Africa and taking her resources.
Exactly!
The USA is less present in Africa than China, Russia, France, UK, Turkey, Germany, India etc... so I'm wondering why there is a whole show on Al jezirah on US strategy in Africa and none for the other countries I cited ? This boils down to the over obsessive fixation on the USA by medias around the world.
@apojaymotivation5301 because USA came with lgbtq agenda and the African no said thanks!
@@apojaymotivation5301the US is not less present on the African continent. It has lots of military bases all over the continent to pillage it just like France. They no better then France. Why you think africom is there in the first place? To monitor the African people. They need shut down all us bases on the continent
She hit the nail in the center. Kudos mama 👏
Her passion brought me to tears. I can feel her like shes sitting in my living room ❤
I have hope. This cannot be just a transfer of power to a new group. The people must share in this to work. As a US citizen I would hope for leaders like her. One more comment we in the west complain about immigration while we have created all the factors leading to.
Thank you
My muma Africa, tell them
The white ppl need to just leave Africa. Without Africa. France, and America, is nothing.
No resources for Frances. Africa does not have to share if that's the case then all the rich white ppl should share their wealth
We in the west create conditions which foster the ground for creating millions of refugees in South America in Africa in Asia ; then blame refugees for their outflux from their ancestral homes
African Countries and it's people have had ENOUGH of colonization!
UNITE AFRICA!
A very powerful revolutionary woman has spoken ❤

Well said Dr Arikana. More power to you and to united Africa.
Now this is how you answer the west!! Well spoken!!
This is the message Dr. Quao planted as an ambassador and caused her that position. But now, the message has resonated with Africans and bearing fruits. She has succeeded in bringing the Revolution that's badly needed in Africa. This is just the beginning
Dr. Quao stood up for what she believed and it cost her the position. Now did this Anarak do the same? Because it's only now that she is making noise. I SALUTE the former. China has Africa dancing to its tune. We are not illiterate to the doings of China

This woman speaks from the soul of the heart of Africa. Kudos to you, ma'am! One love 😍 ✌️
I'm lost for words. I mention this several years ago in college and so many individuals gave me the side eye for mentioning the disproportionate amount of resources generated and sold to western cultures at dirt cheap levels. This is very powerful to hear other people mention and see how the people of Africa are getting exploited by other countries.
I will say her passion really blew me away. I really loved watching the story. It’s certainly not something that they will play on our regular American news channels.
Someone once said, "If you don't change, change will change you."
Everything this woman has said echo the long held beliefs and sentiments of African's in Africa and across diaspora.. 💯 .... we are all fed up of the west interfering in our democracy and pilfering resources from our countries... so glad to see african countries taking back control I hope we will see more following.....
Dr. Arikana never misses!!! 👏🏾👏🏾

Thank you for creating this forum which allows the world to hear Africa speak for itself. The time is long overdue for grass- roots Africans to wake up and take initiative and responsibility for their own well-being. They must etch- out a place of respect and power in the world's marketplace.
As Dr. Martin King once said, " the only way for one to ride your back is for you to be bent over..." Rise up fellow Africans ! "Stand in the dignity of your God given manhood." With strong hands, take hold of life, and with God's guidance and aid, cast off the exploiting parasites. Create for yourselves and your posterity a future we all can be proud of. Then you will hear the world applaud your success.

Sorry sir, this one comes across more as a leader and not a politician.
African countries should redefine their strategies and priorities when working with the west and other foreign powers . Thanks Dr Arikana.true African ✊
If it was left with me, I wouldn't want Africans to do any kinds of business with any of them. They've killed Africans , destroyed our continent, and they are stealing from Africa to entrenched themselves. No no more dealing with any of the same old colonizers.
I loved their conversations ❤️
