October 29 marks the 60th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between China and Zambia. As the first country in southern Africa to establish formal ties with China, Zambia shares a deep and longstanding friendship with China.
The Tanzania-Zambia Railway, built with China’s support, stands as a lasting symbol of the strong relationship between China, Zambia, and the broader African continent. This monumental project not only connected the two countries physically but also strengthened their economic and cultural bonds.
Over the past six decades, China and Zambia have collaborated in various fields, fostering mutual growth and understanding. Their partnership has been characterized by shared goals and a commitment to enhancing the well-being of their peoples.
As they celebrate this significant anniversary, both nations look forward to continuing their journey of cooperation and friendship, building on the strong foundations laid over the past 60 years.
