Rwandan President Paul Kagame was a vocal defender of Africa’s quest to expand its economic partnership with China, saying the continent has a right to seek partners and China is filling a gap for investment.
This is after President Joe Biden’s administration sought to deflect the perception that its summit this week was aimed at competing with China, which has surpassed the US in trade and economic cooperation with Africa.
