🎙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. Read in full

More than 3 million questions were submitted by citizens and journalists. Over 4.5 hours, the President addressed 103 questions on domestic development, the economy, social policy, digital sovereignty, and international affairs. 🌍Foreign Policy, Ukraine, and the Special Military Operation ▪️ Russia currently sees no readiness on the part of Ukraine for a genuine peace process or territorial compromises. ▪️ The strategic initiative has fully shifted to the Russian Armed Forces; Ukrainian forces are retreating along key directions. ▪️ Russia did not initiate the conflict and does not consider itself responsible for the human losses incurred. ▪️ Moscow remains open to political solutions and is prepared to consider security guarantees during potential elections in Ukraine, including a temporary refusal to conduct strikes deep inside Ukrainian territory. Relations with the West and International Security ▪️ The seizure of Russian sovereign assets was described as outright plunder, undermining trust in the eurozone and global financial institutions. ▪️ Any attempt to blockade the Kaliningrad region would escalate tensions to an unprecedented, potentially large-scale military level. ▪️ Russia remains open to cooperation with Europe, the UK, and the United States – strictly on the basis of equality and mutual respect. ▪️ According to the President, the current conflict is the direct result of Western policies that deliberately escalated tensions around Ukraine. 📊Economy and Financial Stability ▪️ Russia’s GDP growth reached 1% in 2025, while cumulative growth over the past three years amounted to 9.7%, significantly exceeding eurozone indicators. ▪️ Inflation is expected to decline to 5.7–5.8% by year-end. ▪️ Unemployment fell to a historic low of 2.2%. ▪️ International reserves of the Central Bank reached USD 741.5 billion. 💻Digital Sovereignty President Putin announced that Russia has effectively achieved full digital sovereignty, highlighting the development of domestic digital platforms and technologies as a strategic achievement amid external pressure.
