China-Africa: the future Chinese President Xi Jinp
China-Africa: the future Chinese President Xi Jinp China-Africa: the future Chinese President Xi Jinping will make his first visit abroad in Africa
The future Chinese President Xi Jinping will visit South Africa on 26 March for a state visit and take part in the summit of Brics (Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa), which opens March 27 in Pretoria, said an official statement.
Formally appointed head of China in the coming days, he also plans to make a long African tour, which should include the lead in Congo on 29 and 30 March where he will meet with his counterpart Denis Sassou Nguesso, according continental weekly Jeune Afrique.
For the CEO of Frontier Advisor, Martyn Davies, this visit is "extreme symbolic importance" given the economic interests that bind China and South Africa in particular and Africa in general.
The China-Africa relations have taken off under the chairmanship of Hu Jintao. The arrival in Africa sends Xi Jinping, according to Martyn Davies, "a clear signal that political tour to Africa will continue."
"This highlights the geopolitical shift of power and increasing geo-economic westward to new countries," he said.
