France pitches 'partnership of equals' as African summit enters second day • FRANCE 24 English

This comes as it completes a military withdrawal from West African countries, which has been seen as a sign of its declining influence on the continent. FRANCE 24's Tom Canetti tells us more on what to expect from this second day from Nairobi.
