连美国也始料未及！中方大手一挥，取消非洲53国关税，有1国除外

Group 1 - The core viewpoint of the articles highlights the strengthening of China-Africa economic cooperation, particularly through the implementation of zero-tariff policies for 53 African countries, excluding Swaziland, as part of the commitment made during the 2024 China-Africa Cooperation Forum [1][5][6] - China has been Africa's largest trading partner for 16 consecutive years, and the new tariff policies are expected to provide opportunities for African exporters in key sectors such as agriculture, textiles, and minerals, helping them mitigate the impact of high U.S. tariffs [3][5] - The Chinese government has progressively expanded its zero-tariff treatment for African least developed countries since 2005, with 98% of tariff items from 27 African least developed countries already benefiting from this policy as of June 2024 [5][6] Group 2 - The recent U.S. tariff measures have negatively impacted the global trade system, particularly affecting the economies of the least developed African countries that rely on trade with the U.S., prompting these nations to seek alternative trade partnerships, notably with China [3][6] - The exclusion of Swaziland from the zero-tariff initiative is significant, as it maintains official relations with Taiwan, which contradicts the broader consensus among African nations supporting the One China principle [6][8] - Articles emphasize that China's approach to trade and economic cooperation is not merely symbolic but involves substantial policy implementation aimed at upgrading African industries and enhancing export capabilities [6][8]
