China, Africa vital for Global South's modernization

China Daily  

Editor's note: With China and Africa elevating their relationship to an all-weather China-Africa community with a shared future in the new era, the two sides are working more closely to realize modernization. China's pursuit of high-quality development and modernization has inspired many Global South countries, including African nations, to take measures to boost development and alleviate poverty. African countries have gained confidence that they can achieve development and modernization also from President Xi Jinping's statements that China is willing to be a partner of Africa on its path to modernization, and supports Africa to enhance its status on the global stage. African countries support China's initiatives including the Belt and Road Initiative, the Global Development Initiative, the Global Security Initiative, and the Global Civilization Initiative as well as the FOCAC mechanism, and are willing to strengthen their partnerships to pursue co-development. Fearing that deepening China-Africa cooperation will narrow the scope for Western countries to interfere in the internal affairs of African countries, some Western politicians and media outlets have been accusing China of setting a "debt trap" for African countries by partnering them in their quest for development and investing in Africa.
