This week, the Burkina Faso delegation, headed by the country's prime minister, is in Russia to attend the Burkina Faso Economic Days forum, aimed at strengthening cooperation between the countries and discussing challenges and prospects for mutually beneficial economic and trade relations.
Present in Moscow at the Burkina Faso Economic Days this week, Thiombiano Nazaire, the head of department of the National Office of Major Projects of Burkina Faso, told Sputnik Africa about projects that the African country hopes to address during the event.
The forum is an opportunity to "strengthen our cooperative relations" and to discuss projects that "will allow us to open our country's march towards its sovereignty," Thiombiano Nazaire noted.
According to the official, the Burkina Faso Economic Days will make it possible to "share a certain number of projects in the field of energy, infrastructure with the Russian government and also private investors." One such project mentioned by Nazaire is the construction of a nuclear power plant, developed in collaboration with Russia's nuclear energy giant, Rosatom.
Concerning renewable energies, he expressed hope that Burkina Faso will build a major solar power plant "with the collaboration of Russian private partners." In addition, there are projects in the railway and road sectors, he stated.
In
an exclusive interview on the sidelines of the forum, the nation's head of the government,
Apollinaire Joachim Kyelem de Tambela, told
Sputnik Africa that Burkina Faso's orientation toward the West resulted in "political and economic enslavement" rather than "our flourishing."
