Zambia: Under Chinese Influence
On Saturday, March 27 at 9:10pm*
The relationship between the two countries goes back to the 1960s. Today, China owns a third of Zambia’s debt and Chinese companies are present in every key sector, from agriculture to mines and industry. If the Chinese presence in the country was praised at first, it is now facing growing criticism, openly voiced by those on the campaign trail in the run up to the presidential election.
With China using the Covid-19 crisis to strengthen its sanitary diplomacy in Africa, France 24’s journalists Roméo Langlois, Nicolas Germain and Yi Song had unprecedented access to Chinese companies in Zambia, shared the daily lives of their directors and bring viewers an exclusive report.
