Putin Congratulates Congo's President on Re-Election
The Russian president was the first world leader to send a congratulatory telegram to Denis Sassou Nguesso, according to the Russian embassy in Congo.
"I am convinced that your new term will strengthen the bonds of friendship between our two countries and give fresh impetus to our mutually beneficial bilateral cooperation,” Putin stated.
The Congolese Constitutional Court has validated Denis Sassou Nguesso’s victory in the presidential election with 94.9% of the votes.
