RIAC and Africa Business Initiative Union Joint Report #53/2020

Africa entered the 21st century with significant achievements and challenges relevant for both the development of the continent and world affairs. Although Africans are responsible for finding solutions to arising problems themselves, Russia is quite capable of making its unique contribution to the search.

A joint report by the Russian International Affairs Council and the African Business Initiative Union provides an analysis of the possibilities of building a multilateral system of cooperation between Russia and world powers with the African community. Such cooperation would be based on the principles of respect for sovereignty and non-interference in the internal affairs of African states.

The report used the method of SWOT-analysis to study potential and current problems facing the continent, determine Russia’s policy towards Africa and formulate relevant recommendations.
