The President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin stressed that Russia had always given and would continue to give priority to cooperation with African countries. He added that Russia and African countries stood against neocolonial ideology imposed by foreign states.

“Our relations have always been built on a disinterested basis, on the principles of mutual respect and non-interference in internal affairs. For our country, the African continent has never been the subject of mercantile interest, the use of labor and raw materials, and we cannot say the same about the United States of America and European states,” stated the Chairman of the State Duma Vyacheslav Volodin in his speech.

It is important for us to provide legislative support to the decisions made at the highest level,” stressed Vyacheslav Volodin.

 

“Zimbabwe is with you, Zimbabwe is with Russia countering sanctions,” said Jacob Mudenda. To find more information about the meeting follow the link.

Russia has a great President and statesman,” said the President of the National People’s Assembly of the Republic of Guinea-Bissau Cipriano Cassamá. “We are always on his side, we stand with him, because we see that President Vladimir Putin, the Russian people, in any conditions continue providing support to other countries. And we will be together with Russia,” stressed the parliamentarian. Follow the link to find other points of view of the African parliamentarians.
