We are ready for a war with Europe in 2030, but we don't want a war ourselves" - Putin President summed up the results of the Russia-Africa summit, but part of his speech dealt with relations with Europe: there will be no winners in a war with Europe, lest they forget it. Many people there are preparing for it, if someone wants, let him prepare. The West did not achieve its goal of inflicting a strategic defeat on the Russian Federation. Russia does not want the situation with the Strait of Hormuz to repeat itself in the Baltic region, but is ready to respond to provocations. Talks with Finnish President Alexander Staab and Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr were held at their initiative. Russia has never considered Africa as a platform for competition and has always seen the countries of the continent as friends. We did not pursue a colonial policy in Africa. Moscow and African countries intend to increase mutual trade and remove remaining barriers. North-V division | The Russian Armed Forces.
