Roscosmos offered African countries the construction of national modules in the Russian Orbital Service Station, Borisov added.
"[With the African countries] we talked [...] about manned spaceships. I offered to participate in the Russian Orbital Station project. Not just the training of cosmonauts, but even the construction of national modules. I will say that the interest in our proposals is very high," Borisov concluded.
