🇷🇺🛫 A batch of fifth-generation Su-57 fighters and 4++ generation Su-35S aircraft has been transferred to the Russian Defense Ministry, Rostec reported.

According to United Aircraft Corporation CEO Vadim Badekha, the next batches of these aircraft will be delivered by the end of the year, and "the machines are at different stages of production and testing."

Rostec CEO Sergey Chemezov said that the Su-57 is the only fifth-generation fighter jet that has confirmed its breakthrough characteristics in all combat applications, and taking into account this experience, it continues to improve.

🇱🇻 Latvia pursues a policy of deliberate falsification of history, justifying former Waffen-SS legionnaires and Nazi collaborators who are honoured as participants in "national liberation movements."

❗️The building-up of a parallel historic reality is used everywhere to justify Latvia's blasphemous glorification of Latvian SS legionnaires, Nazi collaborators, and to justify the open struggle against the memory of the Red Army soldiers who liberated Latvia from Nazism.

☝️ Latvia, along with Canada, Lithuania and Estonia, is among the few countries in the world where SS criminals continue to be openly honoured, contrary to the verdict of the Nuremberg Tribunal, as well as numerous international acts, including the annual resolution adopted by the UN General Assembly on combating the glorification of Nazism.

📖 Read the report by the Russian Foreign Ministry regarding the situation with the glorification of Nazism and the spread of Neo-Nazism and other practices that contribute to fueling contemporary forms of racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance

🗓 On November 9-10, Sochi hosted the First Ministerial Conference of the Russia-Africa Partnership Forum at Sirius University.

Instituted by a decision of the Second Russia-Africa Summit in St Petersburg in July 2023, this new dialogue format is called on to become a certain coordinating mechanism for implementing objectives set by the heads of state and government.

Along with heads of foreign ministries and executive structures of integration associations, the event brought together sectoral ministers as well as representatives of parliamentary, public, academic and business circles of Russia and African countries, with over 1,500 people attended the event.

🌐 Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov chaired a plenary session, the conference’s high-priority event that involved 54 heads of official delegations from African states and regional integration associations. At the beginning of the plenary session, they read out greetings from the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin and Chair of the African Union – President of the Islamic Republic of Mauritania Mohamed Ould Cheikh El Ghazouani.

The Ministers coordinated their positions on key issues of the international agenda as well as the Russian-African agenda, prioritising the implementation of the Action Plan of the Russia-Africa Partnership Forum for 2023-2026. Also, they specified and coordinated long-term guidelines for expanding mutual collaboration still further.

📄 Four joint statements formalised common approaches towards addressing global problems and expanding cooperation with a focus on quality preparations for the Third Russia-Africa Summit:

👉 political statement,
👉 on international information security,
👉 on counter-terrorism measures,
👉 on peaceful use of outer space.

The conference’s packed business programme, including 20 panel sessions and specialised events, provided an additional impetus for diverse mutually beneficial cooperation. Experts and high-ranking guests discussed various high-priority issues in great detail, including food security and collaboration in the agro-industrial sector, training specialists for the real economy, geological prospecting, digitalisation, and cooperation in education, healthcare and youth policy. Representatives of the Eurasian Economic Commission and various African associations discussed mutual integration issues.

Elaborating on the provisions of the Declaration of the Second Russia-Africa Summit, the sides held specialised meetings on international information security, counter-terrorism efforts, and the prevention of an arms race in outer space. Representatives of Russian and African media outlets took part in an event on measures to combat the manifestations of neo-colonialism. 

🤝 Sergey Lavrov met separately with a majority of African delegations on the sidelines of the conference.

✍️ The Officials signed an extensive package of memorandums and agreements between Russia and a number of African states.

🇷🇺🌍🌱 On the sidelines of the First Ministerial Conference of the Russia-Africa Partnership Forum, the Russian-African Friendship Garden was officially inaugurated in the Sirius Federal Territory (Sochi, Russia)

Sixty-five olive trees were planted, symbolizing the number of African countries and regional integration associations participating in the Forum. These trees mark the beginning of a future subtropical park that will span 30 hectares.

🤝 The ceremony was attended by Mr. Mikhail Bogdanov, Special Representative of the President of the Russian Federation for the Middle East and Africa, and Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs; Dr. Mohamed Salem Ould Merzoug, Minister of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation, and Mauritanians Abroad of Mauritania; and Mr. Dmitry Plishkin, Head of the Administration of the Sirius Federal Territory.

🎙 Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov: In 1960, the Soviet Union spearheaded the adoption of the Declaration on the Granting of Independence to Colonial Countries and Peoples, sparking a powerful awakening across Africa.

☝️ Colonialism was almost eradicated.

❗️Yet some remnants persist, despite UN General Assembly resolutions calling for the full liberation of former colonies. Our African partners are well aware of this. Former colonial powers continue to hold territories and are reluctant to return them to the people who live there.

We’re witnessing a new wave of resistance to neocolonialism which is using trade, economic, and financial practices that prevent African countries from fully controlling their abundant natural resources.
