President Cyril Ramaphosa's recent trip to Washington, initially aimed at securing renewed US trade ties and investment, turned into a high-stakes diplomatic showdown with Donald Trump.

The former U.S. president used the meeting to amplify discredited claims of a "white genocide" in South Africa, citing EFF leader Julius Malema in his case.

While Ramaphosa was criticized by some for not forcefully refuting Trump's allegations, his composed demeanor and diplomatic poise have drawn praise from some quarters.

Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo, President of the Republic of Ghana, addresses the general debate of the 78th Session of the General Assembly of the United Nations (New York, 19 - 26 September 2023).

The UN General Assembly (UNGA) is the main policy-making organ of the Organization. Comprising all Member States, it provides a unique forum for multilateral discussion of the full spectrum of international issues covered by the Charter of the United Nations. Each of the 193 Member States of the United Nations has an equal vote.

The United Nations is an international organization founded in 1945. Currently made up of 193 Member States, the UN and its work are guided by the purposes and principles contained in its founding Charter.

The UN has evolved over the years to keep pace with a rapidly changing world.

But one thing has stayed the same: it remains the one place on Earth where all the world’s nations can gather together, discuss common problems, and find shared solutions that benefit all of humanity.

Paul Kagame, President of Rwanda, addresses the general debate of the 78th Session of the General Assembly of the United Nations (New York, 19 - 26 September 2023).

Rwanda's President Paul Kagame said his county “remains committed to working with partners, including the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, to contribute to a durable solution. He was referring to migration crisis, also affecting his county, saying that every year migrants and
refugees undertake dangerous journeys in search of a better future.

Addressing the General Assembly today (20 Sep), Kagame added, “that is part of our promise to leave no one behind.”

According to him, “this week, the International Telecommunications Union, led by Doreen Bogdan-Martin, together with UNDP, also unveiled a major new initiative on inclusive Digital Public Infrastructure.” He added, “Rwanda is very happy to be associated with these efforts, which show the United Nations at its best.”

The Rwandan President also said, “for Rwanda, the source of our solidarity comes from our commitment to never allow a repetition of the tragedy that was inflicted on us, nearly thirty years ago.”

Kagame concluded, “we continue to remain grateful to all who have accompanied us on our journey, as we plan to commemorate the Genocide against the Tutsi for the 30th time in April 2024.”

Félix-Antoine Tshisekedi Tshilombo, President of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, addresses the general debate of the 78th Session of the General Assembly of the United Nations (New York, 19 - 26 September 2023).

In his address to the General Assembly’s General Debate, the President of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), Felix Tshisekedi, today (20 Sep) told the Security Council that the “phased withdrawal of MONUSCO is a necessary stage to consolidate progress” that the country has already achieved.

Tshisekedi said, "African peoples often don't understand the equivocal attitude, the double standards at work, the ambiguities, and procrastination of our Organization, especially the Security Council in certain political and security crises, which are rampaging through Africa and sometimes have rampaged there for decades.”

He said, “following a presence of more than two decades by the UN, it's time for my country to fully take its destiny in hand and to become the main protagonist of its own stability.”

Tshisekedi expressed gratitude to the international community and to the United Nations “for their support and their partnership.”

He said it was “illusory and counterproductive to continue to cling to maintaining MONUSCO to reestablish peace in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and to stabilize it.”

Furthermore, he added, “the accelerated withdrawal of MONUSCO is absolutely necessary to ease the tensions between MONUSCO and our citizens.”

The United Nations Mission in the Democratic Republic of Congo (MONUC) was established in 1966 and renamed as the United Nations Organization Stabilization Mission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (MONUSCO) in 2010.

⁣US AID Dr Arikana Chihombori-Quao explains why Africa does not need US AID. We are just fine without AID the AID is holding us back.

BYD’s sales last year surpassed the $100 billion mark, leapfrogging Elon Musk’s Tesla Inc. on revenue, as the Chinese auto giant wows consumers with a range of electric and hybrid cars packed with high-tech features.

Shenzhen-based BYD reported revenue of 777 billion yuan ($107 billion) for the 12 months ended Dec. 31, up 29%, according to a filing late Monday, beating estimates for 766 billion yuan. Tesla’s 2024 revenue was $97.7 billion. The Chinese EV maker’s net income rose 34% year-on-year to 40.3 billion yuan, beating analyst estimates for 39.5 billion yuan.

BYD has risen quickly to the top of China’s car market — the world’s biggest and most competitive in terms of electric vehicles. This year alone, BYD has unveiled a new ecosystem that allows EVs to charge for 400 kilometers in just five minutes and introduced advanced driver assistance technology in even its most basic models. Investors have sent its shares to a record and BYD’s Hong Kong-listed stock is up around 51% this year.

BYD also sells about the same number of EVs as Tesla — 1.76 million in 2024 versus 1.79 million — but, when all of its other passenger hybrid car sales are included, it’s much larger. BYD’s total deliveries last year climbed to 4.27 million, almost as much as Ford Motor Co.
BYD has forecast it can sell between 5 million to 6 million vehicles this year. It’s already off to a strong start, with sales in the first two months of 2025 up 93% year-on-year to 623,300 units.

One area where Tesla still clearly leads however is market valuation. The US carmaker is worth about $800 billion despite a share-price rout that’s seen the stock plunge 38% this year. BYD has a market capitalization closer to $157 billion.

Musk’s EV maker also makes more money on an absolute basis; Tesla’s net income last year was $7.6 billion.

But whereas Tesla is losing in China — shipments have been backsliding there for the past five consecutive months on a year-on-year basis — BYD is winning. China is still far and away BYD’s biggest market, where it commands a share of almost 15%, not just for new-energy vehicles but any sort of passenger car.

BYD doesn’t sell passenger cars in the US yet due to punitive tariffs on made-in-China automobiles, but it’s made big inroads into markets in Europe, places in Asia like Singapore and Thailand, as well as Australia.

Wang Chuanfu, BYD’s chairman and founder, said in a statement the company planned to keep boosting research and development while bolstering its product competitiveness, including in its focus of succeeding outside of China.

He also said that Chinese auto brands in the era of intelligence-led vehicles were no longer merely followers, but rather at the forefront of the trend. They’re “daring” to be first in the world and are collaborating with other domestic brands to go global and move up the value chain, he said.

Africa is rich—rich in copper, oil, gold, diamonds, and people. But its wealth flows out while its people remain in poverty.

Stealing Africa
Release date: November 28, 2012 (Finland)
Director: Christoffer Guldbrandsen
Writer: Niels Borchert Holm
Stars: Christoffer Guldbrandsen, Bernhard Elsener, Ivan Glasenberg
Country of origin: Denmark
Language: English
Also known as: Plundringen av Afrika
Filming locations: Rüschlikon, Horgen, Kanton Zürich, Switzerland
Production companies: Guldbrandsen Film, The Why Foundation

Stealing Africa explores the mechanisms that keep the continent poor long after the end of formal colonial rule—revealing how modern multinational corporations, global tax havens, and unjust trade systems continue to extract resources and wealth on a massive scale.

At the center of the story is Zambia, home to the third largest copper reserves in the world, yet a country where 60% of the population survives on less than $1 a day and 80% are unemployed. Meanwhile, in the idyllic Swiss village of Rüschlikon, local government coffers overflow thanks to one resident: Ivan Glasenberg, CEO of Glencore, a commodities giant whose Zambian copper mines generate billions—but almost no tax revenue for Zambia.

Through extensive research and access to public financial records, the documentary uncovers how multinational corporations legally avoid paying taxes through transfer pricing, offshore shell companies, and favorable tax treaties. The result? For every dollar in aid Africa receives, ten dollars quietly vanish—spirited away through financial flows that benefit corporations and wealthy nations.

Stealing Africa is not just a film about economics—it’s about power, inequality, and accountability. It lays bare the modern architecture of plunder and asks the crucial question: What does it mean to be "post-colonial" when the money still flows in the same direction?

Produced by Steps International, this documentary is part of the “Why Poverty?” series and remains a vital watch for anyone interested in global justice, development, and the real cost of globalization.
