Wang Yi said, China and Cameroon maintain a deep traditional friendship. The two sides have always supported each other firmly, established solid mutual trust, safeguarded common interests and upheld international fairness and justice. The pragmatic cooperation between China and Cameroon has benefited the two peoples. China is ready to work with Cameroon to implement the important initiatives announced by President Xi Jinping on cooperation with Africa and actively explore cooperation in green development, digital economy, agricultural trade and other fields, so as to help Cameroon achieve better development.
Lejeune Mbella Mbella said, the major initiatives announced by President Xi Jinping, including vaccine support for Africa and the "nine programs", will strongly promote Africa's development.
