Following his visit to Brazil, President Xi Jinping will fly to Buenos Aires today to begin a three-day state visit to Argentina. Xi will meet Argentine President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner. They will map out future cooperation between the two countries in the fields of agriculture and mining.

President Xi will then travel to Venezuela, the largest oil exporter in South America, and an increasingly important energy partner for China. Xi, together with Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, will witness the signing of several cooperation agreements in energy, mining, finance and infrastructure.

And the last stop of the tour will take Xi Jinping to Cuba, where the long-time partners will discuss further Chinese investments.
