“Africa needs strong and credible voices to champion investment in health, dignity and human potential, and that Ms. Geingos has demonstrated precisely that kind of leadership throughout her public life."
"What is happening in #Chad today is the collapse of the state's capacity to function as a national institution" - an inciteful examination of the deteriorating situation by @_hudsonc who just returned from a visit to the country. "Chad’s internal fragmentation is occurring in an increasingly volatile regional environment," he writes, with implications for Libya, Niger, and Sudan.
Russian Z-blogger Aleksei Larkin, who supported the war and actively aided the Russian army, has suddenly had an epiphany and taken a swing at the Commander-in-Chief himself.
That’s only true of Zoom, which predates WebRTC. The native app versions of Teams, Meet, Messenger, etc all use WebRTC. Mobile apps let you manage some native integrations that are useful, manage the UX flows better, and optimize for battery life on mobile. But everyone uses WebRTC internally.
Several coffee companies and coffee traders are launching a new system to track deforestation related to coffee cultivation around the world, JDE Peet's, one of the participating companies, said in a statement on Wednesday. https://t.co/KpvapjeVax
Today in the year 300 like every day, caravans of as many as 12,000 camels moved from 4 a.m. to sunset down from Mediterranean ports, across the Sahara Desert and into West Africa. Timbuktu, Gao and Djenné became major cities along the caravan routes as the Mali Empire grew.
First, Boeing and Ethiopian Airlines do have a deep, strategic relationship. Ethiopian has consistently leaned into Boeing platforms (787s, 737s, 777s), and that fleet choice ties directly into U.S. export financing via the Export-Import Bank of the United States. That part of your argument—industrial linkage + financing—is solid.
However, the “11,000 jobs per $1B” claim is a standard aerospace multiplier often cited by Boeing and U.S. export advocates; it’s not a precise, deal-specific metric. It’s better framed as an estimated supply-chain impact across manufacturing, engineering, and services—not a direct hiring figure tied to one airline order.
Excellent business partnership between the U.S. and Ethiopia via the two most systemically critical companies in each country - Boeing (largest U.S. exporter) and Ethiopian Airlines (Africa’s largest and most profitable airline).
Ethiopian Airlines, with 160+ aircrafts, is by-far Boeing’s largest customer in Africa. The Airline is also the U.S. EX-IM Bank’s largest customer on the African continent.
For every $1.0 billion of Boeing aircraft purchased by Ethiopian Airlines, 11,000 high paying American jobs are created or retained.
It’ll be awesome to see Boeing aircrafts land at the 110 million passengers, $12.5 billion, Bishoftu International Airport (under construction) in Ethiopia, owned by Ethiopian Airlines. When completed the airport will be amongst the 10 largest in the WORLD!
I expect the financing road shows in the U.S., for the new airport, currently underway, to be very positively received by U.S. financiers.
Boeing and Ethiopian Airlines clearly demonstrating that investments and trade partnerships are the way to go between the U.S. and Africa.
On behalf of @CBECapitalSC, big congratulations to all!

“The American government does not want to come [to Sudan], and they are making all these allegations about Sudan without coming to see.” I have to agree with @Amgad_Fareid. The one common thread over 30 year of US diplomacy in Sudan is constant visits. I dont understand how we can claim to understand anything about this country without going there..frequently.

I was profoundly honored by President @JDMahama of Ghana as I received the African Lifetime Achievement Award at the @TheAfriHeritage Awards in Accra. Thank you Your Excellency for always being there for me for decades. You are a true brother and great friend.💕💕
If this listing succeeds, it sets a blueprint for other African giants to stop looking toward London or New York for capital and start looking at their neighbors. Lagos auditioning to be the financial heartbeat of the continent.
7 years ago on this day a powerful popular revolution in Sudan ousted Al-Bashir after 30 years in power and continued their struggle because it was never merely about regime change.
