Kerry Calls for U.S. Investment in Africa, Warns on Corruption

Secretary of State John Kerry today urged greater U.S. investment in Africa to help develop a U.S.- Africa relationship focused more on shared opportunity and economic growth than on crisis management.

“For too long, ties between the United States and Africa were largely rooted in meeting the challenges and crises of the moment,” Kerry told an audience of diplomats and dignitaries in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
