It does this everywhere, not only in Africa, but also in Europe. But times have changed, everyone (excepts EU's current leaders) can see that the US is declining rapidly.
The more it fails, the more our 'leaders' repeat their arrogant demands. What worked before, is no longer working, and they don't know how to deal with it other than pretend nothing has changed.
The US stopped using real diplomacy decades ago, now none of them know how to do it.
