Russia & AES Countries Share 'Same World Vision,' Says Burkinabe Political Scientist
The West adopts a "paternalistic" posture in its partnerships with Africa, while Moscow seeks a relationship of equals, Kouraogo Issaka Sidbé told Sputnik Africa, commenting on Russian FM Lavrov's recent Africa tour.
Key points from the analyst:
🟠Military cooperation: Russia can provide arms to help combat terrorist groups in the Sahel region.
🟠Joint media battle: "We are both facing an unprecedented media attack, whether it is the Confederation of Sahel States or Russia. If we pool our efforts, we will be able to resist what is perceived as hostile imperialism seeking to harm us."
🟠Lavrov's visit: The Russian FM's visit to Niger reaffirms the strength of the partnership between Russia and the Sahel, Sidbé concluded.
