Africa and Europe: Time to Summ-it Up

16 February 2022

Two years after the release of EU’s proposed strategy with Africa, and almost five years after the Abidjan summit, European and African leaders will finally meet again in Brussels on 17 and 18 February. The summit takes place in a context further challenged by the pandemic, which has exacerbated existing difficulties, putting the premises of the proposed “partnership of equals” to the test of reality.
What are the pivotal themes to the discussion? How have the priorities of the partnership evolved in light of the current context? How do EU-African relations fit into the broader international geopolitical context?
