President Hu Concludes Cameroon Visit
Adjust font size:

President Hu Jintao wrapped up his state visit to Cameroon Thursday, leaving the Cameroonian capital of Yaounde for Monrovia, Liberia, the second leg of his eight-nation tour of Africa.

 

In Yaounde, President Hu met his Cameroonian counterpart Paul Biya and other leaders of the central western African country, to exchange views on how to consolidate friendship and deepen cooperation between China and the host country.

 

The two sides signed a series of cooperation documents during the visit.

 

In recent years, the China-Cameroon relations have become increasingly mature, with bilateral political friendship enhanced, economic and trade cooperation expanded and human resources exchanges increased.

 

President Hu's tour of Africa will also take him to Sudan, Zambia, Namibia, South Africa, Mozambique and Seychelles.

 

In a written statement issued upon his arrival at the Yaounde International Airport Tuesday, President Hu described his African trip as "a journey of friendship and cooperation."

 

He said that his current visit to the eight African countries is aimed at consolidating the traditional friendship between China and Africa, implementing the agreements reached at the Beijing Summit of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation last November, enlarging substantial cooperation and promoting common development.

 

At the Beijing summit, leaders of China and 48 African countries agreed to establish and develop a new type of strategic partnership, featuring political equality, mutual trust, win-win economic cooperation and cultural exchanges.
