国防部:中南(非)两军将持续深化全方位务实合作 Militaries of China and South Africa Continue to Deepen All-round Substantive Cooperation 6月9日下午,国防部新闻发言人张晓刚大校就近期涉军问题发布消息。 记者:据报道,国防部长董军近期应邀访问南非。请问发言人如何评价中南(非)两军关系? Question:It was reported that Defense Minister Dong Jun visited South Africa upon invitation. What’s your comment on the military-to-military relations between China and South Africa? 张晓刚:此次董军部长应邀访问南非,是中国国防部长时隔12年再次访问,与南非国防和退伍军人部部长举行会谈,就持续深化全方位务实合作达成共识。“同志加兄弟”是中南关系的本色。中南两军将在两国元首战略引领下,加强战略沟通,完善机制建设,开展专业交流,深化教育培训,打造全球南方国家军事合作典范。 Zhang Xiaogang:Minister Dong Jun’s visit to South Africa upon invitation is another visit to the country by a Chinese defense minister after 12 years. During the visit, Minister Dong had talks with South Africa’s Minister of National Defense and Military Veterans. The two leaders reached consensus on continuously deepening all-round China-South Africa substantive cooperation. The defining nature of China-South Africa relationship is “comrades plus brothers”. Under the strategic guidance of the two heads of states, the two militaries will strengthen strategic communication, refine cooperation mechanisms, promote exchanges in specialized areas, and deepen education and training cooperation, setting an example for military cooperation among Global South countries.
