While Vice President Kamala Harris Prepares Visit to Africa | The US Extends Its Sanctions Against Zimbabwe

Vice President Kamala Harris is scheduled for a week-long visit to Africa. She is the fifth member of the Biden administration in recent months to visit the continent. The Vice President is scheduled to visit the Central African countries of Ghana, Tanzania and Zambia. The visits are a foreign policy follow up to the United States African Leader Summit.  

What does the Biden administration do just before VP Harris' visit to Africa? What does the Biden administration do to thwart its attempts to decrease the Russian and Chinese influence in Africa? What does the Biden administration do to counter its own outreach to the continent of Africa? President Biden extends the sanctions against Zimbabwe for another year. It continues the United States', European Union's and North Atlantic Treaty Organization's (NATO) foreign policies against African countries that have led them to move away from the West towards Russia and China.

After Sanctions Failed Ten Times | The US & NATO Turn to the International Criminal Court, ICC

The US and NATO have used several international tools to bring down The Russian Federation, President Putin and cause regime change in Russia. So far all have failed. There were ten rounds of sanctions. There were failed price caps on Russian oil. The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) was summoned when Russian Ally Forces gained control over the Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP). It found no shelling of the plant by the Russian military as claimed by Kiev. The United Nations, its General Assembly, Human Rights Council and Security Council have been used to go after and turn the world against Russia. Amnesty International was attacked by pro-Ukraine voices for its 2022 report condemning the Ukrainian military for surrounding themselves with civilians. That hurt the Ukraine good, Russia bad narrative. Using civilians as shields is against international law. The ICC did not respond in kind to the Amnesty International report. Now the International Criminal Court (ICC) has been tasked to bring down The Russian Federal and its leader, President Putin. It has issued warrants for the arrest of President Putin and Russia’s commissioner for children’s rights, Maria Lvova-Belova. The ICC has lost credibility in it being fair and just as it targets Africans. In doing the US's bidding, all of these international organizations have lost credibility due to their selective hypocritical partial biased attempts at justice.
