00:00These are good relations that I would say are exemplary.
00:06Since 1975, when we proclaimed independence, China has been on our side.
00:11It has helped us politically and also economically.
00:17China is a bilateral partner and it is one of the first partners to invest in the country,
00:24but also in a strategic framework.
00:27They help us a lot, first of all in training.
00:30We have a lot of young people who are trained in China.
00:34They also help us in infrastructures and in socio-economic development.
00:39China is a very trustworthy partner,
00:44especially since there is a system that unites us.
00:50They are pleading for Taiwan, as we are pleading for Mayotte.
00:54You see, we are united for the unity of our country,
00:58but there are similar things that make us have to be together.
01:01So we support China in their fight to find Taiwan,
01:05as they also support us in their fight to find Mayotte.
01:08But in the meantime, as I said earlier,
01:10we must ensure that our populations have a better life.
01:14And on that side, China helps us a lot.
