China, Africa advance modernization in new era

China Daily  

Editor's note: President Xi Jinping said on Thursday that the joint pursuit of modernization by China and Africa will set off a wave of modernization in the Global South and open a new chapter for building a community with a shared future for humanity. The demand for green development in Africa is significant, as the continent faces notable climate adaptation challenges despite potentially lower emissions compared to other regions. This includes enhancing urban governance resilience, ensuring existing projects are climate-adaptive and resilient and fostering industrial cooperation in areas such as exports and new energy development. In this context, cooperation between China and Africa, as well as the development of both regions, aims to break free from constraints that could potentially subject developing countries to new carbon-based trade restrictions. Countries aspire to reduce emissions and contribute to the global community's development, but it is crucial to prevent carbon emissions from being misused as a pretext for imposing new trade barriers.
