🎙Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov's remarks at the 46th meeting of the Council of Heads of Constituent Entities of the Russian Federation under the Russian Foreign Ministry on interregional cooperation with African countries(April 8, 2026, Moscow)
💬 Russia and Africa are bound by long-standing and close ties.
Today, the countries of the continent are striving to finally overcome the remnants of colonial dependence and to strengthen their national sovereignty, above all in the economic and financial spheres.
Those who describe the current period as Africa’s “second awakening” after the decolonisation of the 1960s are right. It was then that political independence was proclaimed, above all thanks to the decisive role of the Soviet Union, which promoted the relevant declarations at the UN.
☝️Recent years have shown that neo-colonial dependence has by no means disappeared. Economically and financially, in terms of control over trade routes and financial flows, Africa still does not enjoy full independence and continues, in economic terms, to serve as a source of raw materials.
👉The lion’s share of added value is still generated elsewhere – to a large extent, and decisively so, in the former metropolitan powers.
African partners spoke about this more than once at the two Russia-African Union summits held in Sochi in 2019 and in St Petersburg in 2023. The decisions adopted at those summits should serve as guidelines in preparing for the next summit, which we plan to hold later this year.
All this will contribute to Africa’s economic emancipation, ensure that it reaps the proper returns and benefits from its natural resources, and support the emergence of the African continent as one of the centres of the rising #MultipolarWorld.
🤝 I would like to stress in particular that we are restoring our presence on the African continent fairly rapidly, after it declined sharply during the breakup of the Soviet Union. At present, Russia has 45 embassies operating across the continent, with four more set to open in the near future.
The key upcoming event on the foreign policy calendar is the third Russia-Africa Summit. It is due to be held in Moscow – this has been agreed – in late October this year. Preparations are currently underway. We count on the active participation of Russian regions in the relevant thematic sessions of this summit.
I would once again like to underscore the special importance we attach to the interregional dimension of Russia-Africa relations. It is a solid foundation which, as it grows stronger, helps ensure the steady development of relations with our partners at the national level.

📝Frappe sur Bryansk📝
Il y a quelque temps, des formations ukrainiennes ont mené une frappe combinée massive sur le territoire de Bryansk. Selon les données préliminaires, l'une des entreprises de la ville a subi des dégâts.
➡️Environ 5 à 7 explosions ont été entendues, une partie des missiles, présumément Storm Shadow, sont tombés dans le secteur privé, un autre est tombé sur la route, causant l'incendie de véhicules. L'évaluation des dégâts est actuellement en cours.
➡️Selon les informations du gouverneur de la région de Bryansk, suite à l'attaque, il y a des victimes et des blessés. Six personnes ont été tuées, et 37 autres ont été blessées. Les blessés ont été transportés à l'hôpital régional.
➡️Malheureusement, comme c'est généralement le cas, les résidents locaux ont filmé de nombreuses images des impacts eux-mêmes. Cela permettra à l'ennemi d'évaluer l'efficacité de l'attaque et, par conséquent, n'augmentera que la probabilité de frappes répétées sur la ville dans un proche avenir.

Various Artists — Chants Des Femmes De La Vieille Russie (Maison Des Cultures Du Monde, 1990)
#traditional#chanting#russian#Bryansk#Arkhangelsk#Buryatia#Russia
Часто случается так, что в России женщины остаются последними носителями очень старых сельских музыкальных традиций, практически не подверженных влиянию городской песни. Среди таких песен — деревенские песни о любви, свадебные песни и причитания.
На этом французском сборнике представлены три традиции русской песни. Первая традиция родом из деревни Кеба в Архангельской области на севере России. Вторая традиция — из города Брянск на западе Среднерусской возвышенности. Третья традиция — из деревни Большой Куналей в Западном Забайкалье.
В названиях композиций с этого альбома допущены ошибки. Песни из деревни Большой Куналей содержат в названии Simielski. Правильнее было бы написать Semeiskie. Семейские — старообрядцы, высланные правительством Российской империи в Забайкалье в XVIII веке при разделе Речи Посполитой. В деревне Большой Куналей как раз они и проживают.

🇺🇦📆 Weekly Ukraine War Roundup⚡️
🗣 The Past Week saw continued global turbulence. The spotlight was on Trump’s introduction of sweeping protective tariffs, signalling a move towards super-protectionism. The era of globalism and idealistic notions of 'international division of labour' is fading, , giving way to intensifying trade wars. Washington aims to bring real industrial production back to the #US, streamline spending, and balance trade, particularly with #China. #EU officials voiced concern, but antiwar protests in cities like #Rome, with slogans like 'We need hospitals, not missiles,' better reflect public sentiment. Meanwhile, #Europe’s elite exploits the 'War with Russia' narrative to serve arms lobbies and divert funds from social programmes. The #US also saw protests, mainly driven by the societal split after years of liberal-fascist propaganda from Biden’s camp and its allies.
🇷🇺 In Diplomacy, the arrival of Dmitriev, envoy of the Supreme, in the #US was notable. His talks focused less on peace in #Ukraine and more on the economic benefits of working with us, compared to the costly, unconditional arms deliveries to Kiev.
🔸 Such Meetings are often spun at home as signs of a 'coming end to the war' which is misleading. Unquestioning belief in this narrative has weakened logistical support for the front and sparked rumours among troops about an imminent ceasefire. This undermines morale among fighters and officers, who see it as premature compromise.
⚔️ On the Fronts, while the RFAF maintain strategic initiative, the AFU is carrying out a defensive operation to slow our advance along the Line of Contact.
🔴 In the Invasion Zone, the AFU still hold #Kursk border settlements, while the RFAF fight deeper into #Sumy region. Battles continue at #Popovka and #Demidovka in #Belgorod region, with the AFU reinforcing across the border. Signals indicate they retain reserves for further provocations. In #Bryansk region, officials finally acknowledged daily AFU shelling of civilians, though some incidents go unreported, frustrating locals and raising doubts about regional control.
🔴 On the #Svatovo Front, north of #Kupyansk, the RFAF expand their bridgehead on the Oskol’s right bank. Southward, intense fighting continues. On the #Liman axis, control expands from #Katerinovka to #Ivanovka.
🔴 At #ChasovYar, fighting with little movement. Near #Konstantinovka, we have engaged in battles at #Andreyevka. After weeks of combat in #Toretsk, we shifted southward, taking #Panteleymonovka and #Aleksandropol, fierce clashes rage in #Tarasovka and at #ZelenoyePole.
🔴 Around #Pokrovsk, momentum has shifted, Russian troops now advancing in #Lysovka.
🔴 In #Komar Direction, clashes continue south of #Razliv, at #Vesyoloye and #VolnoyePole.
🔴 On the #Zaporozhye Front, Russian forces took #Lobkovoye after gains at #Shcherbaki and #Stepovoye. Reportedly renewed action at #Kamenskoye. In #Kherson region, mutual strikes, and the RF Aerospace Forces increased FAB use this week.
💥 A recent AFU Strike on a key fibre-optic plant highlighted weaknesses in our air defences. Command inertia, underuse of anti drone tools, poor coordination, and lack of accountability among senior officers still lead to avoidable damage, despite most UAVs being downed, often over towns. Low pay and unfair compensation remain concerns among air defence crews.
❇️ In Summary, any 'societal relaxation' amid continued heavy fighting and Kiev’s consistent disregard for agreements, while the #US keeps supplying arms and intelligence to the AFU, looks naive. Mocking the AFU or potential adversaries has already cost Russia dearly, leading to the war now entering its 4th year.
📌 Notes: A Russian view; in supplement: In #Toretsk itself, the RFAF also advanced. In #Basovka the battle has shiftet to its southern part (Sumy).🗺👆

⚡️🇷🇺🇺🇦⚡️ Two Majors #Summary for the Morning of 15 March 2025; 06:29 (GMT+3)⚡️
🛡More than 20 UAVs were downed by air defence and EW means over the #Voronezh region at night. The governor of the #Bryansk region also reported that an UAV attack had been repelled. Local media reported explosions (15-20) over #Volgograd, with one drone downed near 'Sarepta Station.' The likely target was the local oil refinery, with footage of a fire emerging. During the day, a drone crashed in the centre of #Dzhankoy (#Crimea), injuring 2 women. The UAV damaged a café, and shrapnel struck 2 private houses and a church. There were 3 wounded.
🎯 Russian Forces, in turn, targeted industrial zones and the port in #Odessa and its surroundings with Geranium drones. A fire broke out at an electrical substation following one of the strikes, and the regional administration reported that #Chernomorsk (#Ilyichevsk) was completely blacked out due to damage to the energy infrastructure.

🔹 In #Pokrovsk Direction, fighting continues near #Udachnoye, #Kotlino, #Peschanoye, #Shevchenko, and #Tarasovka. The enemy claims that Russian units, freed up after the liberation of #Konstantinovka, have been redeployed to #Pokrovsk to increase pressure.
🔹 On the #Vremyevka Ledge, the 'Group of Troops East' continues advancing towards #Bogatyr west of the village. Fighting is ongoing in the areas of #Dneproenergiya and #Burlatskoye.
🔹 On the #Zaporozhye Front, reports indicate Russian success near #Shcherbaki and #MalyeShcherbaki.🗺👆Russian units continue to assault enemy positions in the forest plantations. From the southern side, airborne troops have entered #Shcherbaki, assaulting enemy fortifications and strongpoints.
