🌍 China's Secret Spying Operation in Africa: The African Union Headquarters 🏢🇨🇳

🔍 In January 2017, an IT engineer at the African Union headquarters in Ethiopia made a shocking discovery. Servers in the building were connecting to a server in Shanghai, uploading emails and audio files in the middle of the night. This raised suspicions about China's involvement in the construction of the headquarters.

💰 The African Union headquarters, built in 2012, was a $200 million gift from the Chinese government. Chinese firms, with Chinese money, designed and built the impressive building. Chinese engineers installed the servers, leaving an intentional backdoor for easy access. However, the Union's IT team eventually removed these servers and found hidden microphones embedded in the furniture and walls.

🌍 China's Rush into Africa: A Projection of Power 🚀

🚧 China's growing influence in Africa is evident through its massive infrastructure projects. China has built roads, trains, dams, mines, and ports across the continent. These projects showcase China's rise as a superpower and its projection of power in Africa.

❓ Questions arise about why the headquarters of such a significant African organization was entirely constructed by China. The reliance on Chinese construction, labor, and money raises concerns about Africa's independence and sovereignty.

🌍 China's Economic and Geopolitical Motives 💰🗺

📈 As China became a rich country, it started looking outward for economic and growth opportunities. China invested billions of dollars in Africa to tap into emerging markets and secure cheap labor. This economic motive drove China's rapid growth and the need for new growth opportunities.

🗺 However, China's motives go beyond economics. Geopolitically, China aims to expand its influence and connect with other countries. China's projects span across the entire African continent, except for Swaziland. These projects range from transportation and energy to real estate and mining.

👥 China's Claim of Cooperation and Friendship 🤝

🤝 China's President claims that these projects are done in the name of cooperation and friendship, following the "African way." While many of these projects have provided economic stimulus to African economies, the true intentions behind China's involvement remain unclear.
