Chinese President Xi Jinping on Tuesday met with Chairperson of the African Union (AU) Commission Moussa Faki Mahamat, who is in Beijing for the 2024 Summit of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC).
Noting that the AU is a flag guiding Africa's unity and self-strengthening and an important platform for international cooperation, Xi said China supports the AU in playing a bigger role in the development of China-Africa friendship.
China stands ready to pursue greater achievements in various fields in its cooperation with the AU and elevate the China-Africa community with a shared future to a new level, he said.
China considers Africa a major priority in its diplomacy, and is willing to increase political exchanges, deepen strategic mutual trust, strengthen pragmatic cooperation, share development experience and promote common development with Africa, Xi stressed.
