Washington [US], May 2 (ANI): China s military base in Djibouti isn t the only sign of Chinese security engagement in Africa but the investments through the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) in Africa can also motivate both Beijing and host countries to increase China s military engagement on the continent.
