Wang Yi, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the People’s Republic of China, will undertake an official visit to Namibia from 5 to 7 January 2025.
During his visit, Wang Yi is scheduled to hold official talks with Namibia’s Vice President and President-Elect, Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah, in Windhoek.
On the same day, he will travel to Swakopmund, where he will meet with President Nangolo Mbumba for further discussions.
According to the Ministry of International Relations and Cooperation (MIRCO), the two countries have worked closely not only on bilateral matters but also in multilateral forums, offering mutual support on global issues of shared concern.
“The Visit will provide the two countries with an opportunity to take stock of progress made in a wide range of areas of cooperation, particularly within the framework of the Forum on China–Africa Cooperation (FOCAC),” said Penda Naanda, MIRCO Executive Director.
The last visit by a Chinese Foreign Minister to Namibia took place in 2019.
