The third Russia-Africa Summit, which will take place in Moscow on October 28–29, is intended to consolidate this trend," Vasily Nebenzya said at the UNSC meeting on Tuesday. Russia supports the AU’s efforts to restore stability on the continent and combat the lasting legacy of colonialism and neo-colonialism, he also noted, adding that peace n Africa requires addressing root causes like external interference. 🗣Furthermore, the Russian diplomat called for expanded African representation in the UN Security Council.
