Description:

The Commander of U.S. Africa Command, Army Gen. Stephen Townsend, says a Chinese naval base in Djibouti has a pier that will accommodate an aircraft carrier. It’s the latest move by China to establish itself as a naval power all over the world. And it’s another marker of China’s attempt to assert itself on the African continent. General Carter Ham (USA ret.) is President and Chief Executive Officer of the Association of the U-S Army. He’s former Commander of U-S Africa Command. In this episode, he examines the continent of Africa, the US's closest allies there, and the potential to both counter China and expand our own partnerships and alliances on the continent.
