Foreign Policy
Guinea's junta has sought to maintain its mining partnerships while resisting external pressure for a rapid democratic transition. China is Guinea's largest investor, primarily in the massive Simandou iron ore project, one of the world's largest untapped deposits.
Historically, Guinea maintained close ties with the Soviet Union during the Cold War and has preserved a tradition of non-alignment. The country's Mano River Union membership links it to Liberia and Sierra Leone on regional security.
