The recently appointed Chinese Foreign Minister Qin Gang is on a
five-nation Africa tour, including a visit to both the African Union
Headquarters and League of Arab States Headquarters, from January 9 to 16. His
travel includes stops in Ethiopia, Gabon, Angola, Benin and Egypt.
This trip marks the 33rd annual customary overseas visit by a Chinese foreign
minister (FM) to Africa that takes place at the start of every year. African
leaders believe the new FM will deliver fresh ideas.
What Africa needs is solidarity and cooperation, not confrontation, said
Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin during Friday's regular press
conference.
Africa is a big stage for international cooperation, not an arena for
major-power rivalry, Wang stressed.
