Joe Biden is using the first visit to Angola by a U.S. president to promote Washington’s investments in the sub-Sahara African nation, especially a wide railway linking Zambia, Congo and Angola that is meant to make it far easier to move raw materials in the continent and for export. The project aims to advance the U.S. presence in a region rich in critical minerals used in batteries for electric vehicles, electronic devices and clean energy technologies and to counter China’s heavy investments in mining and processing African minerals.
