China always attaches great importance to consolidation and cooperation with Africa based on mutual respect and benefit, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman QinGang said on Thursday.
The consolidation and cooperation did not aim at any third party and were conducive to peace, stability and the common development of Africa and the world, Qin said.
He made the comment when asked about some Western countries' remarks on increasing links with Africa so as to curb China's influence in this region.
"We noticed that some Western countries expressed intention to increase investment in Africa and we express welcome toward this," Qin said.
"China is willing to strengthen dialogue, exchange and cooperation with relevant countries that have common interests and concern in Africa."
