Putin at the Russia–Africa Summit: Moscow Is a Better Partner Than the «Colonial» West

At the third Russia–Africa Summit in Moscow, with delegations from 48 African countries (22 represented at the head-of-state level), Putin said Russia is ready to share technology and help localize production rather than simply extract resources.

Key points:
— The West is trying to trap Africa in a new form of «debt bondage» on predatory terms.
— Russia is ready to transfer digital know-how and create jobs on the ground.
— Russia–Africa trade topped $27 billion in 2025, with a target of $50 billion.
— Grain and fertilizer shipments to Africa reached 13 million tons in the first nine months of 2026.
— Around 40,000 African students are studying at Russian universities.

Putin also called for expanding Africa’s role in the IMF and the World Bank.
