  • The visit was also a reiteration of China’s commitment to the census of consensus of promoting and protecting international trade and green economy development.
  • China’s relations with Africa should not be politicized in anyway because China is not helping Africa with an aim of taking the resources from them. The projects initiated by China in Africa are for the better of the continent in as much as China is benefiting in the long-run.
  • The best thing China did to Africa was creating competition as we can see, other countries are venturing in Africa with an aim of competing with the rivals and Africa is benefiting a lot.
