Trump Sends Top US Envoy To Sahel As Washington Challenges Putin's Russia | Firstpost Africa | N18G
After years of losing influence to Russia in the Sahel, the United States is making its strongest push yet to reengage the region. President Donald Trump's administration has sent its new Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs, Frank Garcia, on a three-nation tour of Nigeria, Côte d'Ivoire and Mali, signaling a major shift in Washington's Africa strategy. The visit comes as the U.S. explores restoring intelligence operations in Mali, considers new military arrangements after losing its drone base in Niger, and prioritises security, trade and commercial diplomacy over democracy promotion. It also follows Russia's renewed engagement with the Alliance of Sahel States through Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov. With Russia, China and other global powers expanding their footprint across Africa, Washington is betting that a new approach can help it rebuild influence in one of the world's most strategically important regions. Alyson Le Grange brings you more on this story on Firstpost Africa.TIME STAMPS:
