AFRICA, INDO-PACIFIC AND THE EMERGING INDIAN OCEAN ARCHITECTURE

Bahauddin Foizee on Indian Ocean security, critical minerals, infrastructure finance and AfCFTA. Interviewed by Kabelo Molefe.

As the Indian Ocean transforms into the primary highway for global competition, the strategic alliance between Africa and the Indo-Pacific is rewriting the rules of global trade, maritime security and resource competition.

From the opening:
“The Indian Ocean is emerging as a critical arena of geopolitical competition, connecting Africa and the Indo-Pacific through strategic maritime corridors, resource supply chains and expanding economic partnerships.”

By Kabelo Molefe, Journalist and book reviewer
