African Leaders Turned Trump’s Tariffs into a Trade Revolution
The world watched for chaos. Instead, it witnessed coordination. In the days following the U.S. tariff shock, a strange calm settled over African capitals. It wasn’t the silence of confusion—it was the silence before a calculated response.
Behind closed doors, trade ministers, presidents, and finance officials weren’t scrambling for American forgiveness. They were sharpening pencils, redrawing trade maps, and reviewing export data with a level of urgency reserved for war.
DJ, The Africa of 2025 is NOT the Africa of 2000...One African country can do some extra jobs for another-a third country may deliver raw materials...BRICS+ wants to go for "win-win-deals"...
Just like Russia, Iran grew stronger as a result of western sanctions US tariffs may result in better integration/optimalization of African trade.
What the US does not want from China now ends up-in part-in Africa.
US tariffs on Africa did punnish countries making deals with China, countries wanting to move towards export of more finished goods...the US/west only wants to buy at the lowest price and what it can not produce itself...
It is a neo-colonial agenda in a time where that kind of agendas belong to a dark past.
