More and more African countries are seeking to deepen cooperation with China, said President of the Central African Republic Faustin-Archange Touadera in an interview with China Central Television in Bangui early in August.
The interview was just aired before the 2024 Summit of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC), which, themed on "Joining Hands to Advance Modernization and Build a High-Level China-Africa Community with a Shared Future," is set open in Beijing on Sept. 4.
President Touadera talked about the key features and cornerstone of China-Africa cooperation.
"Africa and China have a long history of cooperation, which is based on the social realities of both Africa and China and mutual respect for sovereignty. We also conduct dialog following the principle of mutual benefit. This kind of cooperation is frank and sincere, full of friendship and brotherhood, which is reflected in many cooperation projects between Africa and China. That is why more and more African countries want to deepen their cooperative relations with China," said Touadera.
