问：据报道，23日，习近平主席访问卢旺达，两国签署15项双边合作文件。同日，印度总理莫迪率商贸代表团也抵卢旺达访问，与卢签署双边合作协议。你对中印在非洲开展合作的前景和空间有何评论？
答：7月23日，习近平主席对卢旺达进行国事访问，与卡加梅总统举行会谈，两国元首一致同意加强发展战略对接，充分发挥互补优势，推动双方互利合作结出更加丰硕成果。两国元首共同见证了关于“一带一路”建设等多项双边合作文件的签署。卡加梅总统表示，“一带一路”倡议对卢旺达、对非洲都是重要机遇，卢方愿积极参与“一带一路”框架内合作。
我们注意到，同日，印度总理莫迪也抵达卢旺达访问，与卢方签署了一系列深化双方贸易投资合作的协议。
Q: On July 23, Chinese President Xi Jinping visitedRwanda and the two countries signed 15 documents on bilateral cooperation. The same day, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his business delegation also arrived in Rwanda and signed bilateral cooperation agreements with that country. How do you evaluate the prospect and room for the cooperation between China and India in Africa?
A: On July 23, President Xi Jinping paid a state visit to Rwanda and held a talk with President Paul Kagame. The two heads of state agreed to strengthen strategic synergy, fully leverage complementary strengths and work for more fruitful outcomes of mutually beneficial cooperation between the two sides. They also witnessed the signing of an array of bilateral cooperation documents, including that on the Belt and Road. President Kagame said that the Belt and Road means an important opportunity to both Rwanda and Africa at large, and Rwanda is willing to actively participate in the cooperation under the framework of the Belt and Road.
We noted that Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrived in Rwanda for a visit the same day, and signed a series of bilateral cooperation documents with Rwanda.
中印作为世界上最大的两个发展中国家和新兴市场国家，都有意在南南合作框架下帮助非洲加快工业化进程，实现自身发展，都有意与非洲各国深化各领域合作，实现互利共赢，中印双方在这方面是志同道合的伙伴。
今年4月，习近平主席和莫迪总理在武汉举行非正式会晤。6月，两人在上海合作组织青岛峰会期间再次会晤。根据目前安排，两国领导人还将在南非金砖国家领导人峰会期间举行会晤。这将是习近平主席同莫迪总理短短几个月时间里的第三次会晤，充分体现了当前中印关系积极向好的发展势头。我们希望中印双方能按照两国领导人达成的共识，积极探索中印+1或中印+X合作，实现中印两国与其他国家的互利多赢，共同为促进地区和世界的和平稳定与发展繁荣作出贡献。
As the two largest developing countries and emerging markets in the world, both China and India are willing to help Africa accelerate its industrialization within the framework of South-South cooperation and achieve its self-development. We are also ready to deepen the cooperation in various fields with African countries to achieve mutual benefit and win-win outcomes. China and India are partners sharing the same vision in this regard.
This April, President Xi Jinping and Prime Minister Narendra Modi held an informal meeting in Wuhan. In June, they met again on the sidelines of the SCO Qingdao Summit. According to what is scheduled at this point, the two leaders will hold another meeting on the sidelines of the BRICS Summit in South Africa. This will be the third meeting between President Xi Jinping and Prime Minister Narendra Modi just in months, which fully showcases the positive momentum in China-India relations. We hope that the two sides will follow through on the consensus between the two leaders to vigorously explore "China-India plus one" or "China-India plus X" cooperation to achieve mutual benefits and win-win outcomes between China and India and other countries, and jointly make contributions to promoting regional and world peace, stability, development and prosperity.
