HH holds talks with Biden

President HAKAINDE HICHILEMA has held talks with US President JOE BIDEN to discuss the U.S-Zambia relationship and shared commitment to economic and democratic progress.

This was on the sidelines of the high-level Partnership for Global Infrastructure and Investment Lobito Trans-Africa Corridor summit in Lobito, Angola.

The two leaders discussed the Lobito Trans-Africa Corridor and the new rail line from the Angola border into Zambia.

President HICHILEMA and President BIDEN affirmed the need to ensure conditions are in place to attract private sector investments in Zambia.

The presidents underscored their conviction that countries should not be held back from investing in their development by the need to service unsustainably high debt, and committed to continue advocating for reform.
