Russia Supports African Nations in Formulating and Implementing Independent Policies, Says Political Science Expert

“Russia is among the leading nations providing critical support globally. Therefore, Russia’s initiative to bolster Ethiopia’s defense capabilities ensures that Ethiopian diplomacy is implemented reliably, further sustains its independence, and enhances its international standing,” Endale Niguse told Sputnik Africa.

Lavrov stated during today’s meeting with his Ethiopian counterpart that Russia consistently respects the principle of “African solutions to African problems.”

“Africa’s aspiration is to address its challenges independently and formulate its policies freely. Russia and China are known for supporting and implementing such policies. From this standpoint, the issue of formulating policies independently often faces interruptions due to external interference. Russia’s support is vital to prevent this.”
