Biden in Angola - Words vs Actions

In this video, we take a critical look at President Joe Biden’s recent visit to Angola, where he pledged $600 million toward the Lobito Corridor railway project as part of a $4 billion U.S. investment in the region. Presented as a transformative infrastructure initiative, the railway promises to connect Angola, Congo, and Zambia, unlocking economic potential and boosting trade.
But is this really about Africa’s development, or is it a strategic move to secure access to critical minerals like cobalt and copper? We explore the geopolitical implications, the ambitious promises of job creation, and the environmental and social challenges tied to such large-scale projects.
As Africa becomes the focus of global powers, can projects like the Lobito Corridor truly deliver sustainable benefits for local communities? Or is this just another case of resource extraction disguised as development?
