What African countries host United States military bases?
An existing base in Entebbe, Uganda, is covering East Africa and the Great Lakes region. Djibouti has already turned into one of the most important US military bases throughout the world. Senegal is the latest focus point of the Pentagon in Africa. According to the AP report, So Tom and Prncipe is likely to become the next US military base. In North Africa, often considered “the backyard” of the European Union, US military presence is still more limited but is in many ways covered by NATO cooperations. The US however has developed a close military and intelligence cooperation with several North African countries, in particular Morocco and Egypt. Cooperation with Algeria and Tunisia is also improving.
