Il Botswana vuole approfondire il commercio con l’UE tra le tariffe commerciali di Trump

Botswana is really a gem of a country.

Oldest ongoing democracy in Africa, their elections have been free and fair since 1960s, back when Spain and Portugal were autocracies

It helps though that they got pretty fair borders, with 90% of the country being from 1 ethnic group ( Tswana) ,compared to the Yugoslavia on steroids that other African countries got

(They’ve always had some democratic tradition aparently, as people used to participate in villages matter and power was somewhat decentralized , so for them democracy was an extension of a tradition they already had)

Alas, they are a pretty stable and steadily developing country.

Botswana, you’re the One-a

Botswana’s call for deeper trade ties with the EU is a strategic response to the 37% US trade tariffs imposed on its exports, which significantly impact its trade dynamics and economic diversification efforts. This move aligns with Botswana’s broader goal of strengthening regional and international trade relationships amid global trade tensions.
