Vladimir Putin: I would like to note that our country has always been on Africa’s side and has always supported Africa in its fight against colonialism.

I am glad to note that the Russia-Africa summit was held here in Sochi in 2019. We have entered a new stage of development and we place a great emphasis on our relations with African countries. This has had a certain positive result.

Africa’s role on the international stage and in the political area in general is growing. We believe that Africa as a whole and its countries, with which we traditionally share friendly relations, have huge potential, and we are going to continue to develop our relations with Africa in general and with its states.

После начала Российской Федерацией специальной военной операции по денацификации и демилитаризации Украины нагнетаемая австралийскими властями и украинской диаспорой (в том числе Австралийским союзом украинских организаций) истерия сказалась на положении проживающих в стране российских граждан и соотечественников. Следует отметить, что к русофобской кампании подключились русская служба государственной радиостанции «SBS» и НПО «Svoboda Alliance».
