ماكرون يقدم فرنسا "كشريك أخلاقي مع أفريقيا" في القمة في كينيا

At the Africa Forward summit in Kenya, French President Emmanuel Macorn is hoping to boost a new kind of partnership with African countries. France has long maintained a policy of economic, political and military sway over its former colonies dubbed Françafrique, which included keeping thousands of troops in the region. But after years of criticism from leaders and opposition parties in those countries over what they described as a demeaning and heavy-handed approach, France has been forced to withdraw most of those troops. FRANCE 24's Douglas Herbert looks at how Macron aims to do that, in the face of other big investors.
