Africa-Press – Angola. Africa-EU partnership and reparations now define the debate that Europe keeps postponing, and Africa can no longer ignore. Leaders met in Luanda for the 2025 Africa–EU Summit and spoke of trade, peace, and shared futures. They praised cooperation and unveiled new investment promises. The language sounded hopeful, but the substance stayed thin. Africa heard no accounting for extraction, no acknowledgment of stolen wealth, and no commitment to repair.
This silence matters because it turns the partnership into a performance. When Europe asks Africa to move forward without justice, inequality hardens. When Africa accepts polished words without accountability, the past quietly shapes the future. The summit revealed a simple truth. Europe wants renewal without reckoning. Africa must decide whether silence still serves it.
Africa, the Caribbean, and the diaspora now push a global reparations movement. The African Union and CARICOM have plans. African Americans are pressing the issue at home. These demands share one claim. Repair is not radical but necessary. Colonial extraction still shapes borders, trade, debt, and power today. These outcomes are measurable, and ignoring reparations does not close history. It cements inequality. That is why the meeting in Luanda mattered. That is why what was unsaid matters more than what was promised.
