"Today's ceremony is a proof of the consolidation of ties, friendship and cooperation which are shared every day by our two countries, namely the Congolese government and our brotherly government of China. This aid made it possible to provide emergency food and nutritional assistance to families affected by the 2019-2020 floods and to carry out rehabilitation activities for productive assets in the Pool department. Long live the Congo-China friendship. Long live the cooperation between Congo and WFP."

"China is one of the biggest supporters of the WFP in the Republic of the Congo and in other countries. Since the beginning of our strategic plan for Congo in 2019, your (China's) support, both technical and financial, is also very valuable to us in implementing projects to strengthen and develop humanitarian action."

The WFP and local governments will distribute the donation of rice to about 170,000 people in the cities of Brazzaville and Pointe-Noire.
