Sen. Coons: “When we have a new President, a new Presidency, there is not a dramatic shift in American policy towards Africa.”
Accra, Ghana – In case you missed it, on 7th September, 2017, U.S. Senator Chris Coons (D-Del.), a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, spoke at the Institute of Economic Affairs on a congressional delegation to West Africa about the economic and political partnerships between Africa and the United States.
“We don’t yet know what the Trump Administration’s initiatives will be for Africa, but we do know, and I’m here to reassure you, that on a bipartisan basis, we in Congress will continue to sustain these tremendous initiatives that have been launched and built up by Presidents both Republican and Democrat,” said Senator Coons.
“We have shared goals to strengthen our democracies, to grow our economies, to have countries that are less corrupt, more efficient, more capable of delivering on the promises that we all care about together,” said Senator Coons.
