China-Africa Comprehensive Strategic and Cooperative Partnership

Speaking at the Johannesburg Summit of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC), President Xi Jinping of China outlined China's policy toward Africa and proposed that the new type of China-Africa strategic partnership be upgraded to a comprehensive strategic and cooperative partnership. The partnership is underpinned by five major pillars, namely, political equality and mutual trust; mutually beneficial economic cooperation; cultural exchanges; security cooperation and mutual assistance; and solidarity and coordination in international affairs.

In this regard, Xi also proposed joint implementation of a 10-point cooperative plan. The plan covers industrialization, agricultural modernization, infrastructure, financial support, and poverty reduction, among others. It provides a basis for building the comprehensive partnership. The vision for an upgraded partnership reflects China's desire to forge relations with Africa based on sincerity, real results, affinity, and good faith, and to serve the greater good. It is a vision for a new era of China-Africa mutually beneficial cooperation and common development.

The FOCAC Beijing Summit in September 2018 adopted the Beijing Declaration – Toward an Even Closer China-Africa Community with a Shared Future and the Beijing Action Plan (2019-2021), and introduced eight major initiatives involving about 100 measures for cooperation.

中非全面戰略合作伙伴關系

2015年12月5日，中國國家主席習近平在中非合作論壇約翰內斯堡峰會上，全面闡述了中國對非關系政策理念，提出把中非關系由“新型戰略伙伴關系”提升為“全面戰略合作伙伴關系”。它由五大支柱支撐，即政治上的平等互信，經濟上的合作共贏，文明上的交流互鑒，安全上的守望相助，國際事務中的團結協作。為推進這一關系建設，習近平還同時提出了中方將同非方重點實施的“十大合作計劃”，涉及工業化、農業現代化、基礎設施、金融、減貧惠民等領域，這為中非全面戰略合作伙伴關系建設夯實了基礎。中非全面戰略合作伙伴關系的確立，彰顯了中國將秉持“真實親誠”的對非政策理念和義利觀，同非洲大陸攜手邁向合作共贏、共同發展的新時代。2018年9月3日，中非合作論壇北京峰會通過《關于構建更加緊密的中非命運共同體的北京宣言》和《中非合作論壇—北京行動計劃（2019-2021 年）》兩個成果文件，推出了以實施“八大行動”為核心的上百項全面深化中非合作的新舉措。
