French President Emmanuel Macron has begun an Africa summit in Kenya, signaling a strategic pivot away from France's traditional West African focus, according to Tagesschau.
The shift aims to counter growing Chinese and Russian influence across the continent. Macron seeks to establish new African partnerships beyond France's historical sphere of influence.
The summit represents a recalibration of French foreign policy amid intensifying great-power competition for African engagement and resources.
