The development of China-Africa relations gained impetus when it became clear in the 1990s that to maintain the "roaring pace" of its economic growth as a result of economic reforms, China would need to look for new sources of energy and natural resources - which it found in Africa.

- Description: "I think that sometimes the media also positions itself as an opposition to the state.
