Eurasia goes to Africa

Throughout 2020, the EPC and the FES’ EU Office in Brussels partnered in a project entitled “Eurasia goes to Africa”. It intended to analyse the policies and objectives of China, Russia and Turkey in Africa.
The EPC and FES carried out an independent assessment of the historical ties between the three countries and the continent; their key economic and political interests; their involvement in the security landscape; and the effectiveness of their soft power tools, including in the domains of education, media, religion, and humanitarian and development aid.
