China is ready to strengthen mutually beneficial cooperation with Mozambique in infrastructure, agriculture and energy, State Councillor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi said.

Greater bilateral cooperation should take place under the frameworks of the Belt and Road initiative, the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC) and the Economic and Trade Forum between China and Portuguese-speaking countries “to help Mozambique achieve faster development,” Wang said.

Wang met Mozambique’s Minister of Foreign Affairs and Cooperation Veronica Macamo in Dakar, Senegal, ahead of the 8th Ministerial Conference of the FOCAC.

“Mozambique is an important partner of China. In recent years, political mutual trust between the two countries has deepened, and bilateral cooperation in various fields has achieved fruitful results,” Wang said. He added that thanks to the efforts of the two sides, bilateral economic and trade cooperation has continued to grow despite the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic.

China, Wang noted, “attaches great importance to the development of China-Mozambique relations, and stands ready to promote the comprehensive strategic cooperative partnership between the two countries to achieve greater development.”

Macamo stressed that Mozambique stands ready to strengthen strategic mutual trust, deepen mutually beneficial cooperation, and maintain solidarity and coordination on international affairs with China, Xinhua reported.
