About this listen
In 2025, Sub-Saharan Africa is a geopolitical hotspot. Russia expands influence through military support in Mali, Burkina Faso, and CAR, trading arms and security for resources, while fueling anti-Western sentiment. China drives economic dominance via Belt and Road infrastructure and trade deals, controlling key minerals, though debt risks linger. African nations, frustrated with Western policies, leverage Russian security and Chinese investment to boost trade, tech, and energy while safeguarding autonomy. With a young population and significant UN influence, Africa navigates global rivalries, poised to emerge as a major player.
