Russian Policy Aimed at Strengthening Africa's Position in the World: Russian Diplomat
"Russia is interested in eliminating inequality so that African and other developing countries not only have equal access to resources and finance, but also participate in the governance of various international institutions, including economic ones, so that their voice can be heard there," Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Aleksandr Pankin told Russian media.
Stable African development and social progress are impossible under current Western colonial practices and require a radical reorganization and democratization of the world order, Pankin, who arrived in South Africa to participate in the G20 meetings on development issues, said.
Pankin noted that African leaders understand the need for fundamental global changes to escape the post-colonial order, recognizing that handouts are insufficient and the current world order lacks rules. He cited tariff wars, sanctions, and political pressure as examples.
