Media voices from the continent

Zimbabwe is working closely with China to support local export companies as a measure to boost its foreign currency earnings, which will in turn stabilize the economy, Zimbabwean Foreign Affairs and International Trade Minister Dr Sibusiso Busi Moyo has said.

"We are looking for the economic cooperation to benefit within the framework of the China-Africa FOCAC platform," he said. Dr Moyo said relations between the two countries had reached a level of cooperation and financial trust that made Harare and Beijing close partners in development, economic cooperation and multilateral affairs.

Dr Moyo said Harare was expecting a new 2019-21 road map and commitment for what China will place at the disposal of Africa.
