Seemingly following in Chinas footsteps, Washington held its first - TopicsExpress



          

Seemingly following in Chinas footsteps, Washington held its first US-Africa Leaders Summit from Monday to Wednesday. China is pleased to see US President Barack Obama sitting with the leaders and government representatives of about 50 African countries, and does not feel threatened by the possibility that warming US-African ties will jeopardize Chinas interests in that continent. However, Obamas remarks on the Summit showed his pettiness. He stressed that the US would not just cooperate with African countries for resources, which according to many media outlets, was a criticism of China. Last week in an interview with the Economist, he even said to African countries that they should make sure the roads [built by Chinese companies] dont just lead from the mine to the port to Shanghai. english.peopledaily.cn/n/2014/0807/c90780-8766453.html
