HARARE, May 28 (Xinhua) -- Visiting Tanzanian President John Magufuli arrived in Zimbabwe on Tuesday for a two-day official visit.
He was welcomed at the Robert Gabriel Mugabe International Airport by his Zimbabwean counterpart Emmerson Mnangagwa, before inspecting a guard of honor.
Magufuli is coming from Namibia where he was on a two-day state visit after attending the inauguration of South African President Cyril Ramaphosa on Saturday.
Zimbabwe and Tanzania enjoy cordial relations dating back to Zimbabwe's liberation struggle and are both members of the Southern African Development Community.
Mnangagwa visited Tanzania in June last year as part of his tour of African nations to thank them for their support after he took power in November 2017.
During the Tanzanian visit, the two leaders agreed to further cement economic and trade cooperation.
