    Anjali Dhankhar asked: What are the major drivers of India’s Africa Policy?

    Abhishek Mishra replies: For a long time, the Indian government was criticised for not having a dedicated strategy/policy for its engagement with the African continent. The frequency of two-way high-level ministerial visits was also limited. Prime Minister Narendra Modi enunciated India’s policy towards Africa in July 2018 during his address to the Ugandan Parliament.

    Rashid Manzoor asked: Can China's increasing clout in Africa be viewed as a zero sum game from India’s point of view?

    Ruchita Beri replies: China’s foot print in Africa has increased considerably in recent years. China launched the Forum for China- Africa Cooperation (FOCAC) in 2000. It is well known that the Chinese Foreign Minister begins each calendar year with regular visits to the African continent. Along with the political engagement, China’s economic engagement with the region has increased. China is currently Africa’s largest trading partner, with the two way trade valued at $254 billion in 2021.
