The USA wish a concrete commitment to assert itself on the African continent, where the Chinese have already positioned themselves for their big recent projects (Highways, infrastructure, plants, turnkey). The size of China´s trade is about US$ 200 billion multiplied by 10 in 10 years! The French, meanwhile, are actually installed in Francophone Africa, given the shared language, but also of the consequences naturally continued a post-colonial period. Not surprisingly, both China and Japan have already sponsored and financed successful African leaders summits.

The U.S.-Africa Business Forum will be part of President Obama´s U.S.-Africa Leaders Summit, the first summit of its kind, and the largest event that any U.S. president has ever convened with African heads of state or government.

An approach that is proven by the Anglo-Saxon temperament more enthusiastic and focused on co-development, far from compassion, now out dated. The appointment is launched for August 5-6 in Washington, to bring us answers as early as exchanges and trade will be triggered between the two big continents. Looking forward to that exceptional summit of a one kind.
