Though thousands of miles apart, China-Africa friendship and cooperation enjoy a long history. As the 2024 Summit of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC) was held in Beijing from September 4 to 6 this year, Xie Yanshen, president of overseas Chinese Association in Togo, shared his observations during his trips to African countries in an exclusive interview with China News Service. 习近平指出,中国是最先同南苏丹建交的国家之一。建交13年来,双方政治互信牢固,各领域合作富有成果。相互尊重、真诚合作是中南关系的底色,携手同行、共谋发展是中南关系的未来。构建内涵丰富、充满活力的中南关系,符合两国人民共同期待和长远利益。中方愿同南方分享发展经验和机遇,继续实施教育技术等项目,加强石油、矿业、农业等领域合作,助力南苏丹经济多元化。中方愿同南苏丹落实好此次中非合作论坛北京峰会各项成果,推动双边合作走深走实。详情
