The United States is reviewing its relationship with Tanzania due to concerns over religious freedom, free speech, obstacles to U.S. investment, and violence against civilians.
"The government of Tanzania’s ongoing repression of religious freedom and free speech, the presence of persistent obstacles to U.S. investment, and disturbing violence against civilians in the days leading up to and following Tanzania’s October 29 elections, required this reconsideration of our ties," the department said in a statement.
