"Some Westerners have said that China has dug a 'debt trap' for Africa, and so on. These are all prejudices," said Nkolo Foe, Professor of the University of Yaounde 1, the Republic of Cameroon, at the 6th Forum on China-Africa Media Cooperation & China-Africa Think Tank High-Level Dialogue on August 21. He also stated that when Western countries tried to teach African countries some "lessons", China brought them bridges, roads and real help.
