At the @CorpCnclAfrica U.S.-Africa Business Summit in Angola, I spoke about the importance of the U.S.-Africa economic partnership. The Trump administration is focused on supporting peace in Africa because we recognize the critical link between peace, stability, and economic prosperity. Together, we will drive transformational growth for both African nations and the United States.

Senior Bureau Official Troy Fitrell discussed the Commercial Diplomacy Strategy – the Trump Administration’s investment-led strategy toward Africa. "What I see are African governments, private sector, and the U.S. government working together. We have a common trajectory, we have a common goal, and we are working together."

Senior Bureau Official Troy Fitrell thanked Angola President João Lourenço for hosting the 2025 @CorpCnclAfrica U.S.-Africa Business Summit and for Angola’s commitment to building economic partnerships with the United States and across the continent.

It’s here! The 2025 @CorpCnclAfrica U.S.-Africa Business Summit opened in Luanda, Angola, bringing African government and private-sector leaders together with U.S. officials to promote greater U.S.-Africa trade, investment, and business partnerships.

The U.S. State Department is shifting from an assistance-led to an investment-led strategy in Sub-Saharan Africa. Our new strategy places Commercial Diplomacy at the core of our engagement by advocating for American companies, finding new commercial opportunities, and engaging with African governments on market reforms.

Ambassador Fitrell: There will be a U.S.-Africa Leaders Summit later this year. We want this to be an inclusive event. #AFHubPress

Ambassador Fitrell on the Lobito Corridor: The idea behind it was not just just the U.S. going in and starting a project, it involves other partners and the private sector coming in. #AFHubPress

The Trump Administration supports the Lobito Corridor Project. It is an investment that the United States remains committed to. It is an investment that the United States feels is very important. It continues to support the Administration's priority of making America safer, stronger, and more prosperous. -  @StateDept Deputy Spokesperson Mignon Houston

Great to meet with @Africa_Finance CEO Samaila Zubairu this morning to discuss our commitment to our partnership and developing the Lobito Corridor.
