New US-Africa policy takes aim at growing Chinese, Russian influence (Talk Media News)

December 14, 2018
From the interview with Todd Moss:
 
Optics aside, countering Russian and Chinese won’t be cheap, and Bolton instead pressed for reducing foreign aid to countries able to pay their own bills or that vote against the U.S. at the United Nations.
 
Todd Moss is a senior fellow at the Center for Global Development.
 
“Africa is a long-term strategic play for the United States and we should behave like we’re here for the long haul rather than negotiating over small things over short time horizons.”
