Ursula
von der Leyen, the new European Commission President, travelled to Addis Ababa
to meet the Chairman of the African Union, Moussa Faki. This is a great
political gesture. It shows the priority she wants to give to the cooperation
with the African institutions.
I
am sure Moussa Faki appreciated the move. He is a very fine politician and knows
that it is in the advantage of both sides to deepen the cooperation. It has also
to become more strategic. Von der Leyen’s message was basically that it is up to
the Africans to propose the agenda.
