The 21st-century geopolitical and geo-economic landscape is characterised by the rivalry between the United States and China. This rivalry cuts across various dimensions such as trade, technology, military influence, and control over international organisations. One of the key battlefields for this rivalry is Africa, a continent with abundant natural resources, a youthful population, unexploited economic potential, and a location at the centre of significant global trade routes.
