US Trying to Wean Africa Away from China with Trade Deals?

12/14/2023 Firstpost: Washington has called 2023 a record year for US-Africa trade. The US has signed almost 550 new trade deals with the continent. The new deals are worth over $14 billion. However, African trade with North America was at about 5% in both exports and imports. It is compared to over 30% for Africa-Asia trade. Africa's main trading partner is China. Is Washington trying to make the continent a new battleground for its rivalry with China?
12/14/2023 第一邮报：美国声称2023年美国与非洲贸易创下纪录，签署了价值超过140亿美元的近550个新贸易协议。然而非洲与北美之间的进出口贸易约占其贸易总额的5％，而非洲与亚洲的贸易占比则超过30％，非洲的主要贸易伙伴是中国。美国是否试图在非洲与中国展开新一轮竞争？
