All of them looking alike, nice……
Here’s what I watched:
On the one hand, I saw the proxy of the World Bank & IMF, Benedict (a quite appropriate first name – I’m thinking Benedict Arnold, the traitor) Oramah of the African Export–Import Bank, desperately shilling for his masters. The ‘non-aligned nations’ have wearied of decades of predatory lending, and so are cutting win-win development deals with China, instead. This is having a debilitating effect on the empire of lies; so they’ve contracted Oramah to be the grinning black face used to forestall the decline of their economic hegemony in Africa & the Caribbean.
On the other hand, I saw a book-smart (theory trumping reality) pip-squeak of an economist, pretending to be a statesman, but publicly falling back to his true level of achievement, as the perennial lead mendicant of a resource-poor small-island state; the only thing that his training as a economist prepared him for.
Both parties are clueless dupes which the empire of lies has enlisted to stop the steady (only because Russia & China want to avoid world sudden, catastrophic economic collapse) de-dollarization that has been in effect since the appearances of Thatcher & Reagan on the world stage. Economists Radhika Desai & Michael Hudson explain multipolarity, and the decline of US hegemony, here:
