Held under the theme "Sino-African Relations in the Second Decade of the New Century", the meeting reviewed the achievements of the development of Sino-African relations in the past decade, analysed the existing problems and challenges facing current Sino-African relations and the outlook for development and areas of potential innovation in the next decade.
