The Dakar meeting of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation will be another witness of the brotherly friendship between China and Africa. In its relations with Africa, China has always adhered to the principles of equal dialogue and mutual benefit. Since the focAC mechanism was established more than 20 years ago, China-Africa relations have deepened on all fronts. At the political level, the two sides reached a comprehensive strategic partnership of cooperation and worked together to build an even closer China-Africa community with a shared future. At the economic level, China's trade volume and investment stock with Africa have increased 20-fold and 100-fold respectively, making China Africa's largest trading partner for 12 consecutive years. On the people-to-people front, the China-Africa Youth Gala, think Tank Forum and Media Cooperation Forum were among the most fascinating exchanges. Chinese medical teams in Africa treated about 220 million African patients.

The Dakar meeting will be a systematic review of China-Africa solidarity and cooperation over the past three years. Against the backdrop of COVID-19, the two sides have helped each other to tide over difficulties. We will never forget the support expressed by African leaders at the most difficult moment of the epidemic in China. When the epidemic broke out in Africa, China was the first to send a medical team to Africa to carry out cooperation with hospitals in 43 African countries. So far, vaccines have been provided to more than 50 countries and the African Union through various channels. At the same time, China and Africa have overcome difficulties and pushed forward the implementation of the eight Major initiatives of the focAC Beijing Summit in 2018. A large number of projects have been launched. In response to Africa's development needs, China has focused its cooperation on health care, resumption of work and production and improvement of people's livelihood. The China-Africa Economic and Trade Expo has been successfully held, with 14 Workshops in Luban inaugurated. Many African companies have stayed firmly in Africa and ensured the continued operation of over 1,100 cooperation projects. From January to September this year, China-Africa trade reached us $185.2 billion, up 38.2% year on year, reaching the highest level in history for the same period. China's industry-wide direct investment in Africa reached us $2.59 billion, up 9.9% year on year, surpassing the pre-epidemic level in 2019.

The Dakar meeting will be an important opportunity to draw up a blueprint for China-Africa relations. The meeting will chart a new course for China-Africa cooperation in the next three years and beyond. The two sides will continue to promote cooperation in key areas such as health, agriculture, trade and investment, and tap the potential of cooperation in emerging areas on this basis. In terms of digital innovation, China has proposed the China-Africa Digital Innovation Partnership Program and held an E-commerce Promotion Season for African Products with The African side, which will help increase the export of high-quality African products to China. On green development, China has shared renewable energy technologies with Africa, and Chinese enterprises in Africa have worked hard to build high-standard green projects. The Declaration on China-Africa Cooperation on Climate Change will be adopted at the Dakar Conference, which demonstrates the common resolve of the two sides in tackling climate change.

China and Africa share a common vision of development and rejuvenation. At present, China is committed to opening up at a higher level, and the African Free Trade Area will provide greater impetus to Africa's economic growth. Reflecting our traditional friendship, the alignment of our development strategies will bring new opportunities for our cooperation. We have every reason to believe that the Dakar Conference will produce tangible results for the benefit of the Chinese and African people.
