Today's hearing will take a hard look at China's rapidly expanding role on the African Continent and consider how it is affecting American interests. In my view, the United States isn't just ceding its potential economic leadership in Africa to China, it may be ceding its political and moral leadership there as well. We will discuss today whether China's expanded reach should serve as a wakeup call for enhanced United States trade and investment, and we will take a close look at whether China's growing influence in Africa may counter or even possibly undermine United States development, diplomacy, and other values-driven goals in the region.
