US President Joe Biden lands in Angola
US President Joe Biden lands in Angola for the first and only visit to sub-Saharan Africa of his presidency, which is focused on a multinational project to rehabilitate a railway line ferrying minerals from inland countries to the Angolan port of Lobito for export.
In anticipation of his trip, the Angolan government declared December 3 and 4 public holidays and deployed heavy security across the capital, Luanda, a city of around 9.5 million people.
