Russian Ambassador to Botswana Andrey Kemarskiy thanked Sputnik team for the seminar "which makes it possible to establish direct contacts although in the remote contact between journalists from Russia and Botswana".
The ambassador stated the importance of the meeting on the eve of Russia-Africa summit “in the program of which significant place is given not only to political but also to economic and humanitarian issues” and added that "this [meeting] is one of the guarantees of this important forum".
At the end of the event, Oleg Dmitriev said: "It is very pleasant to realize that the lecture for journalists of the Republic of Botswana was of interest to journalists who asked questions on current events and the principles of media work. And I believe that if it is interesting for both the embassy and journalists in Botswana, it is a good start for future long-term cooperation".
