China's Policy Toward AfricaThe Chinese government has long attached great importance to its relationship with Africa, and the promotion of friendship and cooperation with African and other developing countries is a key element of China's Independent Foreign Policy of Peace.China adheres to the Five Principles of Peaceful Co-existence, and does not interfere in the internal affairs of African countries. China supports African countries to independently choose their political systems and development paths suited to their own national conditions; China supports them in their just struggles for safeguarding their independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity and against external interference. China supports African countries in maintaining and promoting their unity and in making efforts to solve conflicts through peaceful negotiations. China holds that all countries are equal, and supports African countries in taking part in international affairs on an equal footing. China will, as best it can, continue to offer to African countries economic assistance with no political conditions attached, and engage in various forms of economic and trade cooperation with them on the basis of equality and mutual benefit, so as to promote common development. In dealing with African countries, China will under new circumstances follow the basic principles of sincere friendship, treating each other equally, unity, cooperation, common development and looking into the future; it will endeavor to shape a new Sino-African partnership geared toward the 21st century and featured by long-term stability, equality and mutual benefit.
