Pink lakes in Namibia, located in the Valvis Bey area, are an amazing natural phenomenon. These lakes acquired a pink tint due to the high content of salt and minerals, as well as due to the presence of specific microorganisms.

🇳🇦 On March 21, #Namibia marks the 36th anniversary of its independence, achieved after decades of colonial rule and a prolonged liberation struggle.
European colonisation of what is now Namibia began in the mid-XIXth century. In 1878, the British took control of the area around Walvis Bay. In the 1890s, the rest of the country became a German protectorate known as German South West Africa, which lasted for about 30 years.
In 1904-1907, an uprising of the indigenous population against German colonial rule broke out. It was suppressed with extreme brutality by Berlin and the local administration, with little regard for human life: Europeans killed approximately 65'000 of the Herero population (up to 80%) and 10'000 of the Nama people (50%).
In 1960, Namibian patriotic forces set up the South West African People's Organisation that launched the struggle for the country’s independence, recognised as legitimate by the UN. In 1967, the UN Council for South-West Africa was established. The Soviet Union was among the first to support the Namibian people in their struggle for independence and self-determination, which was achieved in 1990.
Symbolically, diplomatic relations between our countries were also established on March 21, 1990.
🇷🇺🇳🇦 Moscow and Windhoek maintain a regular trust-based political dialogue at the highest and high levels. Over the past two years, Russia's Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has held four bilateral meetings with Namibian counterparts, including recent talks in Moscow with the Minister of International Relations and Trade of the Republic of Namibia Selma Ashipala-Musavyi, who visited Russia on a working trip in January 2026.
💬 Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov:
The friendly ties between Moscow and Windhoek are developing steadily and rest on the principles traditional for our relations – equality, solidarity, mutual respect and support. We highly value the fact that our Namibian friends remember well the assistance provided by the Soviet Union during the struggle against colonialism and in laying the foundations of statehood.
(from Russia's Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov's statement and answers to media questionsat a joint press conference with Minister of International Relations and Trade of the Republic of Namibia Selma Ashipala-Musavyi following talks in Moscow on January 14, 2026)
Russia and Namibia share or have similar positions on most issues of the global and regional agenda.
Extensive experience has been accumulated in bilateral cooperation across trade, economic, scientific and educational, humanitarian and other areas.
🎓Many thousands of Namibians have received education in the Russian Federation or the Soviet Union. Russia also supports Namibia at international platforms, including through humanitarian assistance provided via the UN World Food Programme.
🤝 We extend our best wishes to our Namibian friends and colleagues on the occasion of their national holiday and the anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between our countries. We reaffirm the unwavering commitment to consistently expanding bilateral ties.

Okavango, Oil Drilling, and the Tragedy of Africa
It is not too late for the governments of Namibia and Botswana to halt the race for an asset that is bound to get stranded as the world shifts away from fossil fuels.

AREA assessed the potential for building solar power plants in Namibia by driving 1,000 km across the Kalahari Desert
In early December, the AREA delegation, headed by the Executive Secretary of the Board Andrey Gromov and a member of the Board of the Association, IBAC Director Yulia Berg, made a working visit to Namibia.
During the visit, meetings were held with developers of solar power plant construction projects, the energy company NamPower, representatives of government agencies, including the Investment Promotion and Development Council of Namibia, the Antimonopoly Commission, the Council of Traditional Leaders and the local council of one of the villages where solar power generation facilities could be built.
The delegation drove almost 1,000 km across the Kalahari Desert, allowing Russian and Namibian specialists to familiarize themselves with the current state of the energy infrastructure and the state of the power grid, as well as to assess the prospects for building new stations on site.
At the moment, Namibia is experiencing an acute energy deficit, especially during peak hours - in the mornings and evenings. However, the vast territory of the state and regions with high insolation allow us to confidently rely on solar generation not only as a way to cope with the deficit, but also as a potential for exporting electricity to neighboring countries.

🌎 Off the coast of Scotland, the Orkney Islands’ Tomb of the Eagles is a Stone Age burial site containing over 16,000 human and animal bones. Archaeologists discovered that the tomb, built around 3150 BCE, was used for more than 800 years before being sealed. ✨

🌎 The Namib Desert is home to the world’s oldest living desert fairy circles—mysterious bare patches of earth surrounded by rings of grass. Scientists believe termites create these strange patterns by eating plant roots underground, shaping the desert’s landscape for centuries. ✨

🇳🇦Глава национальной комисси по планированию Намибии на Всемирном экономическом форуме (ВЭФ) в Давосе заявил о планах по развитию атомной энергетики
⚛️Намибия планирует развивать сферу атомной энергетики в стране для снижения зависимости от импорта электроэнергии и обеспечения энергетической безопасности.
⚡️К сожалению, только 60% нашего населения имеют доступ к электричеству. В настоящее время мы импортируем 60% электроэнергии из Южной Африки. Поэтому нам необходимо обратить внимание на наши собственные внутренние ресурсы», — сказал глава Национальной комиссии по планированию (NPC) Каире Мбуенде
🪨
В связи с этим Мбуенде подчеркнул, что Намибия является первой страной в Африке по добыче урана и третьей в мире по этому показателю. Учитывая объемы ресурсов, власти государства рассматривают возможности развития атомной отрасли для долгосрочного решения энергетических проблем.
🤝По словам главы NPC, Намибия изучает перспективы использования малых модульных атомных реакторов и планирует сотрудничать с международными партнерами на континенте и за его пределами для обмена передовым опытом в сфере атомной энергетики.

🌎 The underwater Stone Circles of Lake Michigan were discovered in 2007 by archaeologists using sonar. The stones are arranged in a circle about 12 meters below the surface. One stone features a carving resembling a mastodon, hinting at a possible age of over 10,000 years. ✨
