BEIJING<\/span>, Sept. 6, 2024 \/PRNewswire\/ — The 2024 Summit of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC) was held on Thursday. Chinese President Xi Jinping attended the opening ceremony and delivered a keynote address titled “Joining Hands to Advance Modernization and Build a Community with a Shared Future.” President Xi proposed that bilateral relations between China<\/span> and all African countries having diplomatic ties with China<\/span> be elevated to the level of strategic relations, and that the overall characterization of China<\/span>–Africa<\/span> relations be elevated to an all-weather China<\/span>–Africa<\/span> community with a shared future for the new era. The Summit adopted the Beijing Declaration on Jointly Building an All-Weather China-Africa Community with a Shared Future for the New Era and the Beijing Action Plan (2025-2027) of FOCAC. China<\/span>–Africa<\/span> cooperation has opened a new chapter in the history of jointly advancing modernization.<\/span><\/p>\n

President Xi stressed that China<\/span> and Africa<\/span> account for one-third of the world population. Without our modernization, there will be no global modernization. In the next three years, China<\/span> will work with Africa<\/span> to take the following 10 partnership actions for modernization to deepen China<\/span>–Africa<\/span> cooperation and spearhead the Global South modernization. By closely connecting the future of China<\/span> and Africa<\/span> through the theme of modernization, the development momentum will be generated. The global vision embodied in this blueprint, and the vast creativity and potential it contains serves as a model and source of inspiration for the Global South as well as the entire world. The momentum is boundless.<\/p>\n

In the 10 partnership actions, Xi announced that China<\/span> has decided to give all least developed countries (LDCs) having diplomatic relations with China<\/span>, including 33 countries in Africa<\/span>, zero-tariff treatment for 100 percent tariff lines. This is a proactive, unilateral move by China<\/span> to expand its market access. China<\/span> is the first developing country and major global economy to implement such an initiative, demonstrating that in promoting development with the world, China<\/span> is creating opportunities and achieving win-win outcomes without any hidden agenda, any geopolitical self-interest, or any conditions attached. If China<\/span>–Africa<\/span> cooperation is like a mirror, what people see in it is not only enormous development opportunities, but also China’s<\/span> genuine goodwill and global vision.<\/p>\n

And this is just an epitome of China<\/span>–Africa<\/span> cooperation. The 10 partnership actions cover a wide range of areas, from mutual learning, trade prosperity, and infrastructure development to healthcare, agricultural collaboration, people-to-people exchanges, green development, and common security. For example, it highlights that China<\/span> will provide 60,000 training opportunities to Africa<\/span>, mainly for women and youths, which is aimed at addressing the career development concerns of African youths and cultivating a new generation of talent for Africa<\/span>.<\/p>\n

China<\/span> will also send 500 agricultural experts, and establish a China<\/span>–Africa<\/span> agricultural science and technology innovation alliance, addressing issues of food security and self-sufficiency in Africa<\/span> in the context of global climate change. The 10 partnership actions are concrete, aimed at providing feasible solutions to specific problems.<\/p>\n

China<\/span> is serious and responsible in fulfilling its commitment to Africa<\/span>. It is not difficult to see from the 10 partnership actions that China<\/span> has been committed to helping African countries achieve political stability and social stability. On the foundation of stability, China<\/span> helps African countries seek long-term sustainable development, focusing not only on solving the longstanding issues that hinder Africa’s<\/span> development but also on new pathways that advance Africa’s<\/span> future progress. This indicates that the China<\/span>–Africa<\/span> community with a shared future is by no means a temporary plan; rather, it transcends specific moments and events, genuinely focusing on the overall development of Africa<\/span>. This is why it possesses a vigorous and inexhaustible driving force and demonstrates strong resilience.<\/p>\n

The exploration of building a high-level China<\/span>–Africa<\/span> community with a shared future holds significant global and contemporary importance. Developing countries face a variety of real challenges and are easily affected by the complex and changing international situation, which can disrupt or even hinder the achievement of established goals. If China<\/span>–Africa<\/span> cooperation can carve out a new path for South-South cooperation, it would be a tremendous encouragement for countries in the Global South. This would provide a fresh perspective on addressing global development issues and has positive implications for demonstration and promotion.<\/p>\n

China<\/span> has a population of over 1.4 billion, and Africa<\/span> also has a population of over 1.4 billion. Such a huge modernization process is unprecedented in the history of human civilization. China<\/span> has a firm determination that “on the path to modernization, no one, and no country, should be left behind.” This vision as a major country will write a new chapter in the history of human development, making the future of modernization in the Global South promising, and it will also promote a bright prospect for the world toward peace, security, prosperity and progress.<\/p>\n
