On 23 March 2026, Ambassador of Russia to South Africa Roman Ambarov attended a Day of Reflection on Resistance and Liberation Heritage in commemoration of the Battle of Cuito Cuanavale at Freedom Park in Pretoria. The keynote address was delivered by Deputy Minister of Sport, Arts and Culture of South Africa, Hon. Ms Peace Mabe. Among the participants were Hon. Ms Nomvula Mokonyane, First Deputy Secretary-General of the African National Congress, as well as heads of diplomatic missions from Cuba, Angola, and Namibia, ANC representatives, and veterans of the Battle of Cuito Cuanavale. 🎙 Addressing the participants, Ambassador Roman Ambarov emphasized that the Battle of #CuitoCuanavalewasa turning pointof the Civil War in Angola. The victory of the People’s Armed Forces of Liberation of Angola contributed directly to the peace process in Namibia and helped pave the way for the eventual liberation of South Africa. “Cuito Cuanavale became a symbol of resistance against oppression. It demonstrated that even in the face of overwhelming force, the determination of people fighting for their rights cannot be defeated. It was here that the tide began to turn - not only in Angola, but across the region. The role played by the Soviet Union in supporting Angola during this difficult period remains an important part of this history. Through the various means of assistance and political support, it contributed to strengthening the defence of Angola’s sovereignty. Soviet advisers worked alongside Angolan and Cuban forces, sharing knowledge, resources, and a belief in a just cause. But what truly defined this moment was solidarity to fight together against the colonial yoke. It was the understanding that the struggle of one people is the concern of all humanity. The fight in Angola echoed the voices of those resisting apartheid in South Africa and colonial rule in Namibia. It was one struggle, fought on many fronts,” the Russian Ambassador said. As part of the event, Roman Ambarov laid wreath to the Russian section of the Wall of Names in memory of Soviet military specialists who participated in conflicts in Southern Africa. ℹ️ The Battle of Cuito Cuanavale (August 1987 – March 1988) was a decisive engagement of the Angolan Civil War and a crucial step in the struggle for independence of the countries of Southern Africa from colonialism and apartheid. During the battle, the People’s Armed Forces of Liberation of Angola backed by #USSR, #Cuba, People’s Liberation Army of #Namibia, African National Congress (#ANC) and others defeated the combatants of the Angolan “UNITA” party and the racist regime of the Republic of South Africa supported by the US. #RussiaSouthAfrica#AmbassadorAmbarov

🌎 Along the India-Bangladesh border, a cluster of over 160 tiny enclaves once existed, creating a patchwork of territories within territories. Before a 2015 land swap, some villages belonged to India but were completely surrounded by Bangladesh, and vice versa, forming the world’s most complex international border tangle. ✨ #borders⚡#geography⚡#history 👉subscribe Interesting Planet 👉more Channels

🌎 Baarle-Hertog and Baarle-Nassau, two towns in Belgium and the Netherlands, form one of the world’s most complex borders, with 26 separate enclaves and counter-enclaves interlocking like a puzzle. Some houses are split between countries, with the nationality determined by the location of the front door. ✨ #geography⚡#borders⚡#history 👉subscribe Interesting Planet 👉more Channels

🌎 The border between India and Bangladesh features over 160 enclaves and counter-enclaves—small pockets of land belonging to one country inside the other. Before a 2015 land swap, Dahala Khagrabari was the world’s only third-order enclave: an Indian village inside a Bangladeshi enclave, within an Indian enclave, inside Bangladesh. ✨ #borders⚡#geography⚡#history 👉subscribe Interesting Planet 👉more Channels

🌎 Few borders are stranger than the Haskell Free Library and Opera House, built in 1904 directly on the US-Canada line. The building straddles Derby Line, Vermont, and Stanstead, Quebec, with a black line on the floor marking the international boundary. Its reading room is in the US, but most books are in Canada. ✨ #borders⚡#geography⚡#history 👉subscribe Interesting Planet 👉more Channels

🌎 Strange borders divide the island of Cyprus: the capital, Nicosia, is split by the "Green Line," a UN-controlled buffer zone between Greek and Turkish Cypriot sectors. This boundary cuts through streets and buildings, creating the world’s last divided capital city. ✨ #borders⚡#geography⚡#history 👉subscribe Interesting Planet 👉more Channels

🌎 The divided town of Baarle straddles the border between Belgium and the Netherlands in a tangled patchwork of enclaves. Some houses are split by the boundary, so front doors determine which country's laws apply. This border complexity results from medieval land deals, with 22 Belgian and 8 Dutch enclaves in total. ✨ #borders⚡#geography⚡#history 👉subscribe Interesting Planet 👉more Channels
