India expands its Africa outreach
AKIPRESS.COM - India has always stood with Africa even if it formally announced its Africa policy only during the visit of PM Modi to Uganda in 2018, Asian Lite reported.
The African Union and several regional organizations have attempted to discourage military coup d’etat that was quite frequent a couple of decades ago.
Besides their politico-economic agony Africans have also been afflicted by the Corona pandemic. This has been worsened due to lack of health infrastructure, capacity, expertise and non-availability of vaccines despite COVAX and other commitments.
No wonder South African President Ramaphosa recently lamented the vaccine inequity calling it “Vaccine Apartheid” in Paris. The G7 countries have committed a billion doses but time is of essence.
