What does Isreal want from Africa

Israels objectives in Africa !!

The latest visit från Israels primeminister Bejamin Natanyahu to Africa shows the hard work Isreal has been doing for the past twenty years to gain grund in Africa. Before there has been no African country that had diplomaticties with the state of Isreal apart from the aparthid regime in South Africa. All over a sudden we see now sveven African head of states holdning a summit with Isreals primeminister,( Uganda, Kenya, Ruwanda, South Sudan, Ethiopia, Tanzania and Zambia). These clearly shows Isreals diplomatic skills to breake its Isolation and win ground in Africa. Isreal is today partner with these countrys when it comes to security, economy, politics, education etc.

Through financeing projects they win the heart and the mind of these countries. These summit is the final success that Isreal is gaining. The project Isreal today i financeing is the renisans dam in Ethiopia. They are bothing investing aond earning money fron it. At the same time they are developing Ethiopia, making it one of the bigest producer of electricity. In the strategical political point of view they are strangling Egypt by preventing water from them. These is a political pressure on Egypt.

Isreal has also aid projects such us clean water, the development of agricultureto hellp the African counties. Never the less one of the main goal of Isreal is to have its share of the raw matireal, which they have now succedde in doing. They also want to have access to the first groing African market, in order to sell weapons and security system of these countries.

Politically Isreal has finally friends in Africa and there goal is to have support of more than countries, to get help in the voting process in the UN. Isreal can now relay on these support when needed. That is if the UN will vote for the independence of Palestine in the future.

Isreal diplolmacy has succedded and the results is  these summit. In the near future we will se Isreal having an observer position in the AU.
