LIVE | US Vs China: Africa’s Minerals at Centre of Global Power Struggle | Firstpost Africa | N18G

The United States is ramping up its strategic push in Central Africa, directly challenging China’s growing influence over critical mineral supply chains. Washington has approved a $553 million loan to refurbish Angola’s Benguela railway and expand the high-profile Lobito Corridor, linking mineral-rich regions of the DRC and Zambia to the Atlantic coast. Backed by regional partners, the project aims to cut transport times, slash costs, and secure access to copper and cobalt vital for technology and defence. As China advances rival rail investments, Africa is emerging as a key battleground in a global economic and geopolitical tug of war.
