BEIJING - 3 September 2018: Chinese-African Cooperation focuses on joint interests, win-win benefits and non-interference in the domestic affairs of countries, said Rwandan President Paul Kagame.

Addressing the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC) in the Chinese capital Beijing Monday, president Kigali said the forum would boost cooperation between the two sides in the fields of trade and investment during the coming phase.

The Rwandan president said that China contributed since the establishment of the forum to economic growth in Africa and that Beijing does not consider the continent a dangerous region.
