The Daily Maverick published on 26 March 2021 an oped titled "US-China-Africa and the Quest for New Global Due Diligence" by Claude Kabemba, executive director of Southern Africa Resource Watch.
The author concluded that the geostrategic competition between China and the US does not foreclose economic convergence, but such cooperation will have to consider the fact that Africa is not a passive actor. Sustainable cooperation between China and the US will have to respond to Africa's ambitions defined in strategic documents such as Agenda 2063, the Africa Mining Vision, and the Sustainable Development Goals.
