The African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) is premised at unlocking Africa’s economic potential by boosting intra-regional trade, strengthening supply chains and spreading expertise. The AFCFTA is the largest trade zone since the creation of the World Trade Organization in 1994. Speaking at the summit’s opening ceremony, Egyptian President and African Union Chairman Abdel Fattah al-Sisi said: > The eyes of the world are turned towards Africa. > The success of the AfCFTA will be the real test to achieve the economic growth that will turn our people’s dream of welfare and quality of life into a reality. Member states have committed to eliminating tariffs on most goods. The IMF estimates that this will increase trade in the region by 15-25% in the medium term. Africa has been dependent on donations from other continents, a scenario that has stifled the implementation of its projects and programmes. The dependence syndrome has also taken away Africa’s autonomy at both economic and political issues. Developed economies have been giving aid to Africa so as to support their interests at the geoeconomic and geopolitical arenas, particularly at the United Nations.
