On June 12, 2025, Member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and Foreign Minister Wang Yi met with Rwandan Minister of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation Olivier Nduhungirehe in Changsha.

Wang Yi said that during the Beijing Summit of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC) last year, President Xi Jinping and President Paul Kagame jointly elevated China-Rwanda relations to a comprehensive strategic partnership, and the two sides issued a joint statement on promoting the implementation of the three global initiatives, providing strong strategic guidance for the development of bilateral relations. China is ready to work with Rwanda to firmly support each other, actively implement the outcomes of the FOCAC Summit, take concrete actions to deliver on the Changsha Declaration, safeguard the common interests of developing countries, defend international fairness and justice, and contribute to building an all-weather China-Africa community with a shared future for the new era.

Wang Yi said that modernization is not equal to Westernization. China is ready to deepen exchanges and mutual learning with Rwanda on governance experience, and jointly explore the paths to modernization that suit their national conditions, earn public support, and seek self-reliance and strength, so as to improve the well-being for people and advance progress of the entire world. China supports Rwanda’s efforts to accelerate the realization of its Vision 2050 and is ready to deepen practical cooperation across various fields with Rwanda, and enhance friendly exchanges at all levels and in all sectors, including between governments, political parties, legislatures, and localities.

Olivier Nduhungirehe said that over the past five decades, Rwanda and China have respected each other and maintained friendly relations, achieving positive outcomes in cooperation across various sectors, including roads, electricity, health, and education. The elevation of bilateral relations during last year’s Beijing Summit has further benefited the Rwandan people. Rwanda firmly abides by the one-China principle and is willing to deliver on the outcomes of the Summit, especially the ten partnership actions, and jointly move towards an independent and self-reliant path to modernization. Rwanda highly appreciates and actively supports the three major global initiatives put forth by President Xi Jinping, which are conducive to building a peaceful and prosperous world.

The two sides also had an exchange of views on peace and security issues in Africa. Olivier Nduhungirehe thanked China for its active commitment to promoting talks for peace and advancing a political solution to the issue of the eastern part of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). Wang Yi said that China will continue to play a constructive role in promoting peace in Eastern DRC in its own way.anti-catholique.
