Donald Trump döneminde ABD’nin Afrika politikası: Farklar, beklentiler ve gerçekler

Bu çalışmada, ABD’nin Donald Trump dönemindeki Afrika politikası değerlendirilmektedir. Çalışmanın arka planını, Trump’ın eski Ulusal Güvenlik Danışmanı John Bolton’ın 2018 yılının sonunda Heritage Foundation’da açıkladığı “Afrika Stratejisi” oluşturmaktadır. Bu kapsamda, söz konusu stratejide ortaya konulan “ticaretin arttırılması, dış yardımlarda seçici davranılması, terörle etkili bir şekilde mücadele edilmesi ve Çin gibi rakip aktörlerin dengelenmesi” hedeflerinin başarılı olup olmadığı sorgulanmaktadır. Çalışma boyunca, Trump yönetiminin Afrika politikası selefleri George W. Bush ve H. Barack Obama yönetimleriyle ve kıtadaki en nüfuzlu dış aktörlerden biri olan Çin’le kıyaslanmaktadır. Çalışmada varılan nihai nokta, ABD’nin Donald Trump döneminde ilan edilen Afrika stratejisindeki hedeflerinin bir kısmına göreceli olarak ulaşılsa da, genel anlamda arzu edilen başarının yakalanamadığıdır.
