BEIJING (Reuters) – Chinese President Xi Jinping told African leaders that China was willing to deepen industrial, agricultural, trade and investment cooperation with the resource-rich continent during a speech on Thursday.
China and Africa would undertake 30 infrastructure connectivity projects, Xi said during the opening ceremony of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation in Beijing.
The world’s second-largest economy and the fastest-growing continent would also create shared green development goals, he added.
