At the beginning of the 2023 New Year, China's new Foreign Minister Qin Gang was invited to visit Ethiopia, Gabon, Angola, Benin, Egypt, the African Union and the Arab League from January 9 to 16. Qin Gang chose Africa after his first visit less than ten days in office. As he said, "it continues the fine tradition of Chinese Foreign Minister's first visit to Africa at the beginning of 33 consecutive years". Where Foreign Minister Qin Gang went, there was a whirlwind in China: in-depth talks with visiting countries, leaders of the African Union and the Arab League, ribbon-cutting for the headquarters of the African Center for Disease Control and Prevention, witnessing the signing of multiple cooperation documents, visiting the science and technology parks established by Chinese enterprises in Africa, in-depth investigation of investment projects of African countries, and interaction with local people... The highlights of visits to various stations were numerous, making China-Africa cooperation once again a hot topic of the international community. So, when we talk about China-Africa cooperation, what are we talking about? Foreign Minister Qin Gang's visit may give us the answer. China-Africa cooperation is a handshake between two giants across mountains and seas. Where the Chinese Foreign Minister goes, the most talked about by China and Africa is how to carry forward traditional friendship and move towards a common future. China is the largest developing country in the world, and Africa is the continent with the largest concentration of developing countries. It is difficult for those who understand the history of China-Africa relations not to feel that China-Africa cooperation is a feat that spans thousands of miles and gathers the efforts of generations. Since New China opened diplomatic relations with African countries in the 1950s, no matter how the international situation changes, China and Africa have always understood, respected, supported and helped each other. China-Africa cooperation is rooted in the profound friendship created by the older generation of leaders, has been carefully nurtured by the leaders of the two sides in the past generations, and has been supported and supported by the Chinese and African people. Now it is flourishing and fruitful. In the vast African continent and in the minds of generations of Africans, "China" is synonymous with friends and has not changed for decades. China-Africa cooperation is a common cause of mutual benefit and win-win results for the people's livelihood. Wherever they visited, the African side sincerely thanked China for its consistent support for its development. Both sides agreed to make China-Africa cooperation continue to benefit both peoples. The down-to-earth Chinese choose to speak with facts and data. During his visit, Foreign Minister Qin said that since the new century, China has built more than 6000 kilometers of railways, 6000 kilometers of highways, nearly 20 ports, and more than 80 large power facilities in Africa, and assisted in the construction of more than 130 hospitals and clinics, more than 170 schools, 45 stadiums, and more than 500 agricultural projects. At the completion ceremony of the headquarters of the African Center for Disease Control and Prevention, which was assisted by China, African friends said excitedly, "We finally have our own CDC!" Another African friend said in thanking China for its anti-epidemic assistance, "The friends who care about our health are our real friends." Africa's needs are the direction of China-Africa cooperation, and the projects that China has helped to build are a strong proof of the spirit of China-Africa friendly cooperation, The satisfied smile of the African people is the greatest affirmation of the benefits of China-Africa cooperation. China-Africa cooperation is the mutual appreciation, exchange and mutual learning between the two great civilizations. The heirs of the ancient civilization have a better understanding of what is the right way in the world and are more brave to fight for it. The profound cultural heritage of China and Africa endows China-Africa cooperation with independence
