Rwandan President Paul Kagame touched down in Beijing on Tuesday, kicking off his participation in the highly anticipated 2024 Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC) summit. The event, running from Wednesday to Friday, is set to spotlight collaboration between China and African nations on tech innovation, green energy, and sustainable development.
