President-elect John Dramani Mahama received a courtesy call from the Chinese Ambassador to Ghana, Tong Defa, to deliver a congratulatory message from President Xi Jinping.
Relations between the two countries have been defined over the years by cooperation since the period of Ghana’s first president, Dr Kwame Nkrumah.
Mr. Mahama said his administration would continue with the existing country position on the one-China policy and improve them.
“We know that Sino-Hydro is financing various projects. Unfortunately, the debt default has affected Ghana’s credit rating. By stabilising the currency, we will work to restore the economy, boost economic growth, and bring down inflation” President-elect stated.
He indicated that Ghana needs to work even closer with its partners, including China.
He added “Once we complete the transition, we’ll begin engaging with China on technical cooperation issues and how Ghana can continue to benefit from the FOCAC disbursement and the Belt and Road Initiative”.
