Wang Yi reiterates support to Africa
China will continue to support Africa in its self-driven development and faster modernization, and hopes that all sides will pay more attention to, and increase input for Africa's development, as China has done, Foreign Minister Wang Yi said on Thursday.
China and Africa are "brothers treating each other with sincerity and sharing a common future", Wang said at a news conference in Beijing on the sidelines of the second session of the 14th National People's Congress.
Noting that African countries are going through "a new round of awakening", Wang said development models imposed externally have failed to bring prosperity and stability to them, and they need to find a development path that suit their own national conditions.
"China will continue to stand firmly with our African brothers during this process," he said.
Chinese and African leaders will meet in Beijing for the next meeting of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation this autumn, Wang said, adding that he hopes both sides will enhance their friendship, and deepen unity and collaboration through the summit.
