Speaking at Kamuzu International Airport in Lilongwe on Wednesday, Chakwera  expressed eagerness to boost diplomatic cooperation with Zimbabwe and all the neighboring countries.

“It is very crucial for a country to continuously improve its bilateral ties with other nations.

“We are looking forward to strengthening economic cooperation with Zimbabwe in trade particularly in industrialization which will be beneficial to both nations,” he explained.

President Chakwera stated that he will continue forging deeper relations with neighboring countries as they share similar backgrounds and history.

During his visit in Zimbabwe, President Chakwera is expected to meet SADC ambassadors among other engagements. The two countries share common values, history, and culture and language and along with Zambia, they were once one country under the Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland.

Chakwera is on a regional tour following his election in June as Malawi leander  and was in Zambia last week ahead of his visit in Harare.
