Tanzania is always open for dialogue with Moscow and is prepared to receive Sergey Lavrov if he visits, the country's envoy to the UN, Hussein Kattanga, told Sputnik.
"Definitely yes. Tanzania is always open," Kattanga said when asked about meeting with Russian authorities this year on food security, energy, or investments.
The envoy said if Lavrov is coming down to Tanzania, he would have no problem meeting with him.
At the same time, the envoy did not confirm the possibility of a meeting with Lavrov on the sidelines of the ongoing UN General Assembly, emphasizing that he "cannot speculate" on the topic for now.
