Power Africa Initiative, General Electric, Millennium Challenge Corporation

President Barack Obama announces the "Power Africa" initiative in Tanzania, a public-private partnership aimed at doubling electricity access across the continent. The project involves $7 billion in US support and $9 billion from private companies like General Electric and Symbion Energy. Critics argue this is a reactive attempt to mimic Chinese infrastructure investment strategies in Africa while the US continues to rely on drone warfare.
