Senior Communist Party of China (CPC) leader Liu Yunshan on Wednesday met with senior foreign representatives who participated the third forum on China-Africa media cooperation in Beijing.

Liu, a member of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, hailed the issuance of a joint declaration on exchange of personnel.

Calling China and Africa "one community with a shared destiny," Liu said China had always valued relations with Africa and ties should support common development.

The China-Africa media forum is an important part of China-Africa cooperation, said Liu, adding that China is willing to further enhance media cooperation with African countries in order to inject new impetus into ties.

The China-Africa relationship was elevated to a comprehensive strategic partnership of cooperation during Chinese President Xi Jinping's visit to Africa last December.

Chad's Minister of Communication, Spokesman of Government Moustapha Ali Alifei, whose country holds the rotating presidency of the African Union, said media cooperation between China and Africa would increase communication competence and influence of developing countries.

Representatives agreed that Africa would like to enhance media cooperation with China to lift the comprehensive strategic partnership of cooperation to a new level.

The two-day forum, which began in Beijing on Tuesday, was attended by 320 media representatives and government officials from China and 44 African countries, according to the State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television, which is co-hosting the event with the African Union of Broadcasting.

According to the declaration, Chinese and African media will increase personnel and information exchanges to contribute to the China-Africa comprehensive strategic partnership.
