2024年12月美国总统拜登访问佛得角和安哥拉，以履行对非承诺，彰显对非重视，并在其卸任前进一步巩固在非政治遗产。从拜登此次访非可看出其任内美国对非政策特点，即在大国博弈驱动下，美国全面加大对非外交、经贸和安全投入，以维系在非领导力，对冲中、俄等国在非影响力拓展。拜登对非政策调整取得了一定的积极效果，拉近美非关系的同时为非洲国家提供了发展资源支持。但美国始终从大国博弈视角处理对非关系，这决定了非洲在美国外交中的边缘地位。美国对非“全力以赴”的承诺难以落实到位，加之特朗普上台也将给美非关系带来更大冲击，美非关系将进入全面重塑时代。
In December 2024，U.S. President Biden long overdue Africa visit took him to Cape Verde and Angola，trying to demonstrate the importance he places on the continent，and further solidify his policy legacy in Africa before leaving office. Biden’s visit reflects the characteristics of his administration’s Africa policy，which，driven by great power competition，has comprehensively increased diplomatic，economic，and security investments in Africa to maintain U.S. influence and counter the expanding presence of China and Russia on the continent. Biden’s adjustments to U.S. Africa policy have achieved some positive results，providing essential resources to support African development. However，the U.S. continues to approach its relationship with Africa from the perspective of great power competition，inevitably relegating Africa to a marginal position in U.S. foreign policy. As a result，U.S. commitments to cooperation with Africa have struggled to be fully implemented. The incoming Trump administration is also expected to bring greater disruption to U.S.-Africa relations，ushering in an era of comprehensive reshaping of ties between the U.S. and Africa.
