The President of Ghana, Nana Akufo-Addo, granted FRANCE 24 and RFI an interview against the backdrop of the Paris summit on the financing of African economies. He said that he sees the jihadist terrorism that's striking the neighbouring Sahel region as "the most important security challenge" for Ghana and the other 14 ECOWAS countries. He also called the Covid-19 vaccine coverage a "scandal", as less than 2 percent of vaccines administered worldwide have been in Africa.

In 1884, fourteen nations sat around a table in Berlin to divide a continent none of them owned. No African leader was invited. No African voice was heard. The borders they drew — through kingdoms, communities, and cultures — still define the map of Africa today. And they are still bleeding.
This is the story of the Berlin Conference of 1884-1885, the room where Europe carved up Africa like a piece of property. From Otto von Bismarck's power plays to King Leopold's private horror state in the Congo, from the doctrine of "effective occupation" that launched the fastest land grab in history to the colonial identity cards that helped fuel the Rwandan genocide a century later — this video traces the full, devastating arc of how a few months of European diplomacy condemned an entire continent to generations of conflict, exploitation, and artificial nationhood.
Before Berlin, Africa was home to empires that rivaled anything in Europe. The Mali Empire, Great Zimbabwe, the Kingdom of Benin, the Ethiopian dynasty — these were not empty lands waiting to be claimed. They were civilizations with histories stretching back centuries. What happened in that room on Wilhelmstrasse was not development. It was theft on a continental scale.
The consequences are not history. They are headlines. Nigeria. Congo. Sudan. Somalia. Rwanda. The borders drawn by men who never set foot in Africa are still shaping who lives, who dies, and who profits.
If you want to understand why the modern world looks the way it does, you have to understand what happened in that room.

In the late eighteenth century, the French colony of Saint Domingue teetered on an unstable social pyramid. At the top of the hierarchy were wealthy white plantation owners who enslaved the vast majority of the island’s population: hundreds of thousands of enslaved Africans and their descendants. New ideas about natural rights swirled around the Atlantic world and reached the people of Saint Domingue—including enslaved people—and helped launch the most radical of the Atlantic revolutions. But the fight didn’t end with independence, as the new nation of Haiti continued to struggle for its survival and the end of slavery.
