Following Their Meeting as Foreign Ministers, Russia and Mozambique Reaffirm Their Defense Cooperation
Maria Manuela Lucas commended the “resilience” of the Russian people while voicing alarm over the continued conflict in Ukraine. The issue has been monitored “closely” in Mozambique, she added, and her nation “would very much like for this matter to be resolved in a peaceful way.” Lucas also emphasized how the war affected Africa’s food security.
In his evening speech on Monday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that Russia and Ukraine will have another round of negotiations on Wednesday. Sergey Lavrov, Maria Manuela Lucas’s Russian counterpart, was able to announce his nation’s commitment to supporting Mozambique’s defense during her visit to Moscow.
“We reaffirmed our willingness to consider any inquiries from our friends in Mozambique regarding matters related to the need to strengthen their defence capability, strengthen their potential in the anti-terrorist sphere” , Lavrov stated. Regretfully, Mozambique and other African nations continue to face such dangers. In 2019, the Wagner paramilitary group provided Russian mercenaries to the Mozambican government to aid in the battle against a jihadist insurgency.
