Widespread Praise Of Bush's Africa Visit Ignores President's Flawed Legacy
As President Bush returns
to the United States from his whirlwind tour of Africa, Africa Action
notes with concern that coverage of Bush's trip has concentrated on
particular successes in individual countries while ignoring the systemic,
continent-wide development challenges that unjust U.S. economic policies
continue to promote.
Most of the attention around the Bush visit has focused on U.S. public
health programs in Africa, particularly the President's Emergency Plan for
AIDS Relief (PEPFAR). Although Bush claims to have asked for a doubling
of the U.S. commitment on AIDS to $30 billion over the next five years,
the President's actual budget proposal for the next fiscal year would
provide no increase in annual HIV/AIDS funding over current levels, and
includes a 40 % decrease in U.S. contributions to the Global Fund to Fight
AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria.
"In order for the success stories he saw last week to be replicated across
Africa, President Bush should do his best to ensure that future U.S
policies support widespread systemic changes in U.S.-Africa relations,"
said Michael Swigert, Africa Action's Program Associate for Policy
Analysis and Communications. "This means fully funding the fight against
HIV/AIDS and removing the ideological limitations in PEPFAR that undermine
the program's effectiveness. The U.S. should cancel the foreign debt of
African countries so that aid money is no longer trapped in a useless
cycle of debt payments rather than funding the social and economic
programs it was intended for. President Bush witnessed firsthand the
positive impacts of debt cancellation in Tanzania. As long as other
African countries remain bound by the chains of debt, similar gains across
the continent will be difficult."
In an effort to promote the concept of his legacy as a "compassionate
conservative," Bush's visit highlighted successful U.S. aid programs while
failing to give adequate attention to the serious conflicts in Africa
where further U.S. diplomatic pressure is needed. President Bush can claim
a real diplomatic success in the U.S-brokered 2005 peace agreement that
ended Sudan's decades-long North-South civil war, but despite his strident
rhetoric condemning the genocide in Darfur, the reality for civilians on
the ground there remains as perilous as ever, and international neglect
has allowed the North-South peace to come under threat of collapse.
"Beyond giving aid, the U.S. needs to be a global good neighbor, using the
full force of its international leverage to finally end the genocide in
Darfur, support peace negotiations in the Great Lakes region and negotiate
a just resolution to Kenya's political crisis through multilateral
engagement," said Gerald LeMelle, Executive Director of Africa Action.
One Bush program that threatens such an approach is the new unified
command for U.S. military operations in Africa known as AFRICOM.
"Even though the Bush administration recently announced that AFRICOM will
continue to base its operations in Germany rather than in Africa, by its
very nature, this aggressive initiative threatens successful U.S.-African
partnerships for development and democracy." said Mr. LeMelle. "Contrary
to the altruistic rhetoric Bush used to describe the program during his
visit, AFRICOM is driven by U.S. interests in preserving access to African
resources and operating freely in the global "war on terror" at the
expense of Africa's people. This is evidenced by the fact that neither
African governments nor the United Nations were consulted on the
announcement of AFRICOM. Widespread cheerleading for U.S. development
initiatives should not dupe the public into ignoring the militarization of
U.S. foreign policy toward Africa."
