BEIJING, March 8 (Xinhua) -- China-Africa cooperation has grown into a towering tree that no force can topple, Chinese State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi said Friday.
China's relationship with Africa is at the best it has ever been, Wang told a press conference on the sidelines of the national legislature's annual session.
"There is a deep mutual trust between the two sides," Wang said, noting that African leaders and individuals have come out against slanders about China-Africa cooperation.
The foreign minister said that the exemplary effect of China-Africa cooperation can be leveraged to encourage more countries to give greater attention, weight and input to Africa.
"We can build an even stronger China-Africa community of shared future," he said.
