Summary/Abstract: China’s economic cooperation with the African countries has stepped up in recent years. Numerous initiatives are taken by China to deepen mutual relations not only in political but also in economic terms. The paper presents the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation, established in 2000, constituting a mechanism for dialogue and cooperation between China and Africa. The analysis of the size and structure of trade exchange conducted by China with African countries and the influx of Chinese foreign direct investments to this continent has been made. The prospects of further cooperation between China and the African countries have been presented. China’s strategy towards the continent has to better respect the need to promote its more balanced development.
