Why America Is Dumping Ruto And The New Scramble for Africa by the US, Russia & China LNN

In this compelling episode, we delve into the intricate web of global geopolitics, focusing on Kenya’s designation as a Major Non-NATO Ally by the United States, a historic first for sub-Saharan Africa.

This move, announced during President William Ruto’s state visit to Washington in May 2024, has sparked discussions about Kenya’s strategic alliances and the broader implications for the African continent.

We examine the lavish state dinner hosted by President Biden in honor of President Ruto, exploring whether such gestures signify genuine partnership or a strategic “fattening” to align Kenya more closely with Western interests.

As global powers like the U.S., China, and Russia intensify their presence in Africa, we ask:
•What are their true intentions?
•Whose interests are being prioritized?
•How do these alliances affect Africa’s sovereignty and development?

Joining us is renowned Pan-Africanist, author, and host of the African Awakening podcast, DJ Bwakali, who helps us connect the dots and shed light on these pressing questions.
