Mozambican President Filipe Nyusi on Thursday received the Chinese Deputy Foreign Minister, Zhang Ming.
Speaking to reporters at the end of the audience, Zhang said that his meeting with the President served to strengthen cooperation between the two countries in agriculture and public works.
“I informed President Nyusi about the level of implementation of the consensus attained during his visit to China (in 2016)”, he said, describing the relations between the two countries as “increasingly consolidated”.
“There is a brotherhood between Mozambique and China, and this was reaffirmed in our meeting, during which we discussed a variety of matters”, said Zhang, who is on a working visit to Mozambique.
China has become one of the major investors in Mozambique, and the latest sign of this, clearly visible to all visitors to the capital, is the construction by a Chinese company of a suspension bridge across the Bay of Maputo. When completed (which should be by December), this will be the longest suspension bridge in Africa.
