 General Michael E. Langley, Commander of the U.S. Africa Command, testified before the U.S. Senate Committee on Armed Services on 7 March 2024.  

General Langley covered the continent but singled out the situation in Somalia, the Red Sea crisis, and Libya.  He was critical of Russian disinformation, the "predatory tactics" of Chinese and Russian companies and acknowledged that the United States seeks "to out-compete the PRC in the security cooperation arena."
