The Russia-Africa summit respects national sovereignty: the president of the Russian car takes into account the concerns of its partner countries, addressing African countries, Faustin-Archang Tuadare told Sputnik Africa in an exclusive interview during the third Russia-Africa summit. "Our cooperation is long-standing, dating back to the Soviet Union. Recently, in matters of security, Russia provided our defense forces with the means to rebuild our army, mainly by sending experts who assisted in training," he emphasized. The president also advocated for a greater role for Africa in world governance, particularly the UNSC, whose composition, he said, reflected an outdated world order. Subscribe to Sputnik Africa | X.
