2023-05-26
Qin Gang said that friendly exchanges between China and Africa are closer, and leaders of both sides often come and go like relatives. In the past six months alone, four African presidents have been invited to pay state visits to China. Since the beginning of this year, more than ten African officials at or above the ministerial level have visited China. The China Africa Conference on Poverty Reduction and Development, the China Africa Youth Festival, and other events have been held successively, and the spirit of "China Africa Friendship and Cooperation" has been continuously passed down on the vast land of China and Africa. The mutually beneficial cooperation between China and Africa has deepened, bringing more and more tangible benefits to the people of both sides. China has become Africa's largest trading partner for 14 consecutive years, with over 10000 kilometers of railways and nearly 100000 kilometers of roads jointly constructed. Additionally, a large number of important infrastructure such as airports, docks, bridges, and power stations have been built and put into use. At the beginning of this year, Mr. Faki, Chairman of the African Union Commission, and I jointly attended the completion ceremony of China's assistance in building the African Center for Disease Control and Prevention, witnessing a new landmark of China Africa benefiting people's livelihoods and high-quality practical cooperation. These tangible achievements have played an important role in promoting economic and social development and improving people's livelihoods in Africa. The stronger international cooperation between China and Africa has become an important force in maintaining international fairness and justice. We jointly hold high the banner of multilateralism and firmly uphold the purposes and principles of the United Nations Charter. China has always supported the leading role of the African Union and African sub regional organizations in resolving regional conflicts, and supports the African people in solving African problems through an African approach; We always support Africa to play a greater role on the world stage and insist on speaking up for Africa in multilateral forums such as the United Nations. We are the first country to explicitly support the African Union's accession to the G20. (New News Agency)
