I’ll start, and then I’ll turn it over to my colleague Mr. Clark.
These two countries are important for Africa at this particular time. Zambia is important because of its geographic location and all the investments. I know this committee has an interest in supply chain and industrialization issues. Zambia is a central hub.
Benin, on the other hand, is in the West African region, and geographically, this is a port region. The country also has a degree of democratic stability. It neighbours countries in the ASS, the Alliance of Sahel States. I believe having these two countries is an asset.
I’ll let my colleague Mr. Clark jump in.
