Trump to remove Rwanda and South Africa from US trade deal
The move comes barely a week after Rwanda's defence ministry was hit with sanctions by the US Treasury.
What the coverage shows
Both outlets focus on the same proposed trade shift affecting Rwanda and South Africa, with BBC News and Al Jazeera each making the suspension the headline point. The differences are in framing and detail: BBC News ties the move to a prior US Treasury sanction on Rwanda’s defence ministry, while Al Jazeera foregrounds South Africa’s duty-free access and says it would affect $1.7bn in annual exports.
