Zimbabwe's President Robert Mugabe met with Chinese leader Xi Jinping on a visit to China hoping the long-time ally and economic giant can help the African nation's ailing economy.

Mugabe was welcomed today with a 21-gun-salute at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing and hailed by Xi as a "renowned leader of the African national liberation movement" and an old friend of the Chinese people.

The leaders oversaw the signing of a number of agreements, including on economic, trade and tourism cooperation and emergency food donations and concessional loans from China to Zimbabwe. No details were immediately released.

Mugabe told Xi that Zimbabwe, being the smaller country, benefited more from the relationship, but said his government would do its best to "reciprocate your friendship.

It is better than being enslaved by the West(Their sanctions alone is an attempt to enslaved them). No Nations can survive on its own, we all need friends and Zimbabwe have found a worthy friend.

Word! The Yanks as scheming as they be, always have a strand of sympathy in them, but definitely not the Chinese, you must pay for every dime you borrow, or they'll take it themselves, that's just one reason why i dont like China's growing influence! The Devil we know is definitely better!

I think it will be in the interest of zafrica yo forge ally with the Chinese rather than the Chinese government because as it stands, US is not our friend, they ate only controlling us. China may not be innocent either but they are surely better than US.

China is quietly re-colonising Africa under the guise of infrastructural development and economic co-operation. I was speechless when a Zim colleague told me there's a shopping mall in their country, which is solely populated by Chinese and their products - On African Soil!

You sound like a broken slate, you've not seen the details of the agreement, yet you've concluded.
Am happy for Zimbabwe, after years of unfriendly relationship with the West.
But then, lots of embargos till hanging on her neck.
