The Chinese government has determined to send teams of medical experts to Ethiopia, Burkina Faso, Congo, Nigeria and Saudi Arabia to help the countries fight the COVID-19 pandemic, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Zhao Lijian stated Wednesday.


China and African countries are longtime brothers who share weal and woe. African countries had supported China during China's most difficult times fighting the pandemic, which China will never forget, Zhao said at a news briefing, adding that China is paying close attention to the situation of the pandemic in Africa, and has overcome its difficulties and provided anti-epidemic materials and aid to the African Union and all African countries with diplomatic relations with China.


"These steps are all a reflection of building an even stronger China-Africa community with a shared future," said the spokesperson.
