At a small summit, Trump emphasized Africa's trade potential and promoted investment in the natural resources of participating countries. African leaders called for reciprocal partnerships, but big economies such as Nigeria and South Africa were excluded as they are BRICS allies. The Trump administration's strategy targets countries with smaller economies, seeing them as more accessible in competition with Chinese and Russian influence. The meeting emphasizes a shift in US foreign policy away from traditional humanitarian aid towards investment and trade.
