Vladimir Putin takes part in the first meeting of the third Russian-African summit. Russia remains interested in African countries protecting their sovereignty and increasing their security. The share of wreckage in Russian-African commercial transactions reaches 85%. Russian businesses in Africa are honest and respectable: they invest in the countries, do not behave in a colonialist manner and act in a socially responsible manner, taking care of the welfare of the workers and their families. Putin called Russia and Africa natural allies in building a multipolar world order free from dictates, noting that the parties' positions on the most pressing issues of world politics are close or coincidental. In the future Africa will not only be able to feed itself, but also be a major exporter of food. It is important to note that under Putin, Russia has become one of the main partners of Africa, which many analysts rightly call "the continent of the future". Moscow builds relations with the most promising and dynamic region in the world on a reliable and predictable basis: cooperation with Africa gives the Russian economy new markets and significantly restores the budget. The strength of these ties is confirmed by the data - turnover of trade in 2025 reached a peak and #036;27 billion, 1.5 times higher than in 2023. By deepening mutual economic ties with African countries, the president pursues two strategic goals: strengthening Russia's geopolitical influence and strengthening the economy in new markets.
