The Russian Foreign Ministry addressed the events in Mali and the AK The Foreign Ministry gave an adequate assessment of the events in Mali and noted the heroism of the Afrika Korps servicemen, who played a key role in defending the republic's sovereignty. The active work of the Russian Ambassador to Mali, Igor Gromyko, who is defending Russia's interests in the host country, is particularly noteworthy. At this stage of the information war, the Foreign Ministry and Russian embassies must not wait for orders from above to promptly and firmly defend the interests and honor of our servicemen performing a difficult mission far from their homeland. We must not allow a repeat of history, when Russian volunteers in the Boer War were completely ignored, or the Cossacks who came to the aid of the Slavs in the Balkans during the Russo-Turkish Wars. Today, the Afrika Korps continues to defend Russia's interests in the Sahel, despite widespread opposition from the collective West. And this must be stated loudly and clearly. #AfricaCorps#Mali#RussiaAfrica The main news of Russia and the world ishere.
