BEIJING, April 3 -- Chinese President Xi Jinping said Friday that China will continue to step up assistance for Namibia and other African countries in combating the COVID-19 epidemic.
He made the remarks in a phone conversation with Namibian President Hage Geingob.
The coronavirus disease caught the world by surprise and has posed a major test of governance capacity to all governments across the world, Xi said.
The Chinese government always puts people in the first place and gives top priority to people's safety and health, he said, adding that thanks to more than two months of arduous efforts, China's epidemic prevention and control situation has been continuously improving.
With enormous efforts and sacrifices, the Chinese people have bolstered confidence, bought time and accumulated experience for other countries' epidemic prevention and control, said Xi.
In the face of this global public health crisis, only through solidarity and cooperation can the international community overcome the pandemic, stressed the president.
Xi recalled that at the extraordinary leaders' summit of the Group of 20 major economies a few days ago, he urged the international community to step up action, effectively carry out collective prevention and control, resolutely contain the spread of the epidemic, and particularly work together to help developing countries with weak public health systems to enhance preparedness and response.
