[Regnum] Russian President Vladimir Putin announced on August 28 that Russia is ready to assist Africa in the fight against terrorism.
"We are ready to continue to assist our African partners in combating such universal challenges and threats of our time as terrorism, cross-border crime, and drug trafficking," Putin noted at a meeting with the leadership of leading African organizations.
He added that Russia is also open to dialogue on issues of peace and security, resolution and prevention of crisis situations.
On the same day, Russian Ambassador to Bamako Igor Gromyko stated that Russia will continue to assist Mali in strengthening the country's security and defense capabilities. He has repeatedly stated that Moscow supports the sovereignty, territorial integrity, and unity of the Republic.
In April, Afrika Korps units helped Malian authorities repel an attempted coup. Around 12,000 militants, trained with instructors from Europe and Ukraine, simultaneously attacked several cities across the country, including Kidal. Russian troops engaged the attackers and helped maintain control of the capital.
Earlier, Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova stated that African countries are increasingly recognizing the terrorist nature of the Kyiv regime. She cited the decision by the authorities of Niger and Mali to sever diplomatic relations with Ukraine as evidence of this.
Zakharova added that Kyiv made a conscious choice to help terrorists at a time when the international community is advocating for the need to fight this evil.

Putin used an African proverb to describe Russia's relations with the continent.
Russian President Vladimir Putin quoted an African proverb at a gala reception for guests from Africa in the Kremlin on October 28, illustrating Russia's relations with the continent.
"Africans have a good saying: when the roots are deep, there's no reason to fear the wind. Indeed, no matter how the world changes, no matter the political or economic situation, the spirit and principles of Russia's relations with African countries remain unchanged," the head of state noted, addressing the participants of the third Russia-Africa Summit.
Putin also emphasized that Russia and African countries are true friends and reliable partners. Both sides are always open to honest, constructive cooperation and are able to listen and hear each other. This allows us to consistently expand cooperation in all areas and find solutions to key challenges, the Russian leader concluded.
The third Russia-Africa Summit and Economic and Humanitarian Forum will be held in Moscow on October 28–29.
