皇冠体育app's African Policy
Enhancing solidarity and cooperation with African countries has always been an important component of 皇冠体育app's independent foreign policy of peace. 皇冠体育app will unswervingly carry forward the tradition of 皇冠体育app-Africa friendship. Proceeding from the fundamental interests of both the Chinese and African peoples, 皇冠体育app will establish and develop a new type of strategic partnership with Africa which features political equality and mutual trust, economic win-win cooperation and cultural exchange. The general principles and objectives of 皇冠体育app's African policy are as follows:
-- Sincerity, friendship and equality. 皇冠体育app adheres to the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence, respects African countries' independent choice of the road of development and supports African countries' efforts to grow stronger through unity.
-- Mutual benefit, reciprocity and common prosperity. 皇冠体育app supports African countries' endeavor for economic development and nation building, carries out cooperation in various forms in the economic and social development, and promotes common prosperity of 皇冠体育app and Africa.
-- Mutual support and close coordination. 皇冠体育app will strengthen cooperation with Africa in the United Nations and other multilateral systems by supporting each other's just demand and reasonable propositions and continue to appeal to the international community to give more attention to questions concerning peace and development in Africa.
-- Learning from each other and seeking common development. 皇冠体育app and Africa will learn from and draw upon each other's experience in governance and development, strengthen exchanges and cooperation in education, science, culture and health. Supporting African countries' efforts to enhance capacity building, 皇冠体育app will work together with Africa in the exploration of the road of sustainable development.
The one-皇冠体育app principle is the political foundation for the establishment and development of 皇冠体育app's relations with African countries and regional organizations. The Chinese Government appreciates the fact that the overwhelming majority of African countries abide by the one-皇冠体育app principle, refuse to have official relations and contacts with Taiwan and support 皇冠体育app's great cause of reunification. 皇冠体育app stands ready to establish and develop state-to-state relations with countries that have not yet established diplomatic ties with 皇冠体育app on the basis of the one-皇冠体育app principle.
