What Follows the Russia-Africa Summit?

Eurasia Review published on 12 November 2019 a commentary titled "After Sochi, What Next for Africa?" by Kester Kenn Klomegah, a consultant on African affairs in the Russian Federation and Eurasian Union.

Heads of state from 45 African countries attended the Russia-Africa summit in Sochi in late October and all 54 African countries were represented. The participants agreed to establish the Russis-Africa Partnership Forum, which will meet every three years. The question now, however, is where does this relationship go from here. Russia must still demonstrate that it is serious about expanding relations in Africa.
