The Chinese government will continue to support Angola as the African nation attempts to diversify its economy as part of existing strategic partnership between the two countries.
The announcement was made by visiting Chinese Foreign Affairs minister Wang Yi, who met with Angola’s President João Lourenço in Luanda.
Wang is on a four-day visit to Africa, which began on Saturday in Rwanda. He is also scheduled to visit Gabon and Sao Tome and Principe.
According to the Foreign Ministry, China’s support for Angola will focus on technology transfer for development of the Southern African country.
Wang also stressed the importance of expanding bilateral cooperation, adding that his country’s authorities are pleased with the way the Angolan Head of State, João Lourenço, is searching for solution to development of Angola.
He added that he had received assurances from the president on the creation of an attractive business environment for private investors in the country.
The two countries will mark 35 years of diplomatic relation this year.
