A Mao Ning: Today is the 60th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and the Republic of Congo.
During his meeting with Sassou in October last year, the President said that similar ideas, mutual trust and mutual support are the magic weapons for the steady and long-term development of China-Congo relations. Over the past 60 years, no matter how the international situation changes, the two countries have always stood together through thick and thin, firmly understood and supported each other on issues concerning each other's major core interests, and have been like-minded companions, sincere partners with mutual trust, and iron-clad friends who support each other. Over the past 60 years, the two countries have worked hand in hand, in a down-to-earth manner and with sincere cooperation, which has truly enhanced the well-being of the two peoples. Congo (Brazzaville) National Highway 1 shortens the driving time from the capital Brazzaville to the economic center of Pointe-Noire from one week to eight hours; The African Bank of the Democratic Republic of the Congo provides convenient financial services to the local people; The aircraft maintenance center under construction will also further promote the development of aviation in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (Brazzaville) and the sub-region. The China-Congo Friendship Primary School built by Congo (Brazzaville) for the disaster area in Yushu, Qinghai Province vividly interprets the friendship between China and the Congo in sharing weal and beg.
Looking ahead, the two sides will continue to work together to implement the consensus reached by the leaders of the two countries and push the China-Congo comprehensive strategic cooperative partnership to a new level. China will also take the new session of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC) to be held this year as an opportunity to closely align Chinese modernization with Africa's peace and development, and work together with friendly African countries, including Congo Brazzaville, to build a China-Africa community with a shared future at a higher level.
