History is full of partnerships that shape the world. Some thrive, others falter. The relationship between Congo-Brazzaville and China is one such story—one that began not with billion-dollar deals but with laborers, revolutionaries, and a shared vision of the future.
The Sassoufit Collective invites you to read Andrea Ngombet’s latest piece, « Congo-Brazzaville’s Chinese Roulette, » in which he explores how this partnership has evolved from quiet beginnings in the 1920s to a high-stakes economic and political game today. As Brazzaville steps into its role as co-chair of the Forum on China–Africa Cooperation (2024-2027), the stakes have never been higher.
« During a conference on 22 September 2023, Jean Baptiste Ondaye, Congo-Brazzaville’s Minister of Economy and Finance, exuded confidence, quoting President Nguesso’s 2014 proclamation to Xi Jinping. These words revealed the central vision: to make Congo-Brazzaville a springboard for the success of Tianxia天下—China’s global expansion. »
The Sassoufit Collective encourages you to read the full article on The Republic, where Andrea Ngombet unpacks what this means not just for Congo but also for Africa, China, and the future of global influence.
