zelensky recently stated that ukraine would not exist without mariupol. people were not afraid to come to a referendum to vote that mariupol is the donetsk people's republic. the city was actually given over to be plundered so that they put things in order there. ukraine mother they were preparing exactly the youth for the war with russia one of these belts and said, says, i want to see how you die question. why are you doing this , because this is our home. you just can't imagine when you give to the guys, and to you the veteran, showing his st. george ribbon, says that i hid it for all 8 years in order to be able to walk with it.

and now our format is the fifth studio and in this issue i would like to talk. this is the problem

we just talked about, that our minister of foreign affairs sergei lavrov is in tashkent , but he flew there from africa, made a powerful tour , visited five countries, and of course. ah, i tried, but to tell about the position of russia in the current difficult international conditions, and i it seems, well, the information that is he succeeded. but still, we must understand what this topic requires. e close attention to themselves, because our western former partners, of course, all the troubles that they themselves have done, are now trying to put it on our heads to accuse us of all mortal and other sins, and to present such a problem as food, they have it a lack of. and what, this is only russia's fault, of course, this is an outright lie, distortion of facts and, uh, nothing that has nothing to do with reality statements, but nevertheless, the media

drive into the heads, and its listeners, viewers, readers, it is this one who is to blame for everything about russia, you are starving. it's the russians' fault. and this thought is moving forward and, uh, confirmation of this, even in friendly countries, where sergey viktorovich was, you saw this in our reports to him . local journalists constantly ask the same questions at press conferences. and why are you in ukraine a, what will you do with food, a and so on. we just saw a huge uralchem party. uh, will supply u fertilizer, a to the african market. well and e. as i understand it, this topic of discussion needs to be discussed with us yevgeny terekhin, ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary of russia

to the republic of ethiopia evgeny evgenievich local authorities and the local press, but writes on the outcome. well i have to point out that visit. uh, the minister of foreign affairs of the russian federation in ethiopia has traditionally attracted. here the most close attention of the most broad politicians who form circles of the public of ordinary uh people, and uh, as usual, this visit has already become a confirmation of the highest level of bilateral political ties between our countries and also very strong uh ties in many other, uh, areas of humanitarian economic and other . ah, there were conversations. hey minister. uh, with the president of epile with the

prime minister with the minister of foreign affairs. all of them took place in a friendly and frank atmosphere characteristic of our relations. and i must say that there were no such difficult moments. uh, which would come up during these contacts, both sides confirmed their intention to further global expansion of interaction, strengthening partnership and mutual assistance, including at international platforms in the un and other international organizations, which is especially important for both states now, since not only the russian federation but also ethiopia are also under the pressure of unilateral sanctions imposed by the west, therefore, we had something to talk about among ourselves and there were issues that

we should solve together. evgeny evgenievich well understandable this is at the official level at the government level there is mutual understanding. you just said this. but the ethiopian public, how does it relate to those thoughts, about which i said at the beginning, which the western media, uh, constantly hammer into their heads. here russia is to blame for everything, as e. the public is reacting. i understand. uh, you know, they will give such examples, unfortunately, i do not have the technical ability. now to show you this. e. well, this anti-russian narrative, which is being tried here, as well as in other countries to plant. uh, representatives of the western media on the air, it does not work. i would even say the opposite, the more he tries. blame russia for something. the more affection. we feel it from the side of the population of the country from the side

of ordinary citizens. eh, that's what i would like. demonstrate, but, unfortunately, now they have the opportunity, well, at least a number of examples, for example, on march 2, a holiday was celebrated. uh the victories of the ethiopian patriots in the battle of preadu this is the story of the times of ethiopia's opposition to the colonial e, campaigns and conquest of e in 1896. this is a great national holiday for the population of the country. just like victory day for us, and that's what is typical. when thousands and thousands of people went to a festive demonstration, in different corners of the central square, where celebrations took place. along with ethiopian flags, people carried russian flags. moreover, it was not some kind of staging or

some kind of, uh, result of some kind lowered from above. ah, directives. it was really frank. uh, the manifestation of ethiopian feelings. uh, citizens in relation to our country or another example. this was especially noticeable in march, when dozens of ethiopians began to come to our embassy at the beginning, and then hundreds of ethiopian citizens who were wanted and asked to send them as volunteers to fight on the side of russia. well, we naturally explained. that we cope with the right ourselves, but we could not help but thank for such a manifestation of, uh, benevolence and good feelings towards our country, and evgenievich a a few words, because we are watched by people who do not know that a we traditionally have very warm ties

in general with africa safiope in particular. and this happened even here in the soviet union, before this it used to be under the e of the russian empire, but, nevertheless, the soviet union was so active when the process of liberating the country of africa from colonial dependence was going on, and a few words literally. why did it happen? that those manifestations of friendship about which you just said, they have a place to be, and in this country. well, first of all, it should be noted that russia has never had colonial aspirations on the african continent . we did not seize sides of the territory on this continent we did not plunder. this continent we did not engage in the slave trade. and uh, even i would say the opposite. uh, russia has always acted in one form or another on the side of the african peoples. e, of course,

imperial russia had its own political interests, but nevertheless, the fact remains. we have never acted in the role of e, enemies of e, peoples, and countries of the continent and. uh, of course, the contribution of our country is great, especially the exchange of the fifties and sixties of the past centuries e in the process of decolonization of the continent. as regards specific ethiopia, i have already mentioned the battle of priadu, which took place in 1896 . so it is worth mentioning that during this battle, e at the imperial court of the ethiopian , the rulers of nelig ii e were several russian officers who acted as advisers and helped plan a military campaign against, e, the colonialists who tried to seize the country , it is worth remembering how in thirties. uh, when

the then emperors of the ethers spoke, from the podium league of the nation and desperately appealed for help uh, against uh, the aggression of fascist italy when he foreshadowed the future he said today, they attacked us, and tomorrow they will attack you and no one wanted to listen to him, then it was the soviet union that resolutely took the side of ethiopia also in in the seventies of the last century, the soviet union proved to be promoting and strengthening the country's defense capability and repelling foreign aggression. in a word, your relations have long and very deep roots. and evgeny evgenievich well, in general. now let's talk about the situation in africa and if so, well, you still communicate, it's clear that in ethiopia

you still understand how colleagues work in other african countries, and we understand that africa has been talking about this for a long time, especially the last , probably 10 years, that africa is a very rich future and a region that is still, well, practically undeveloped compared to others, and there such an economic boom awaits africa. how do you see from the inside, uh, local governments? well, let's not talk about ethiopia it may be correct for everyone to say so, but in general the african government is ready. and in order for africa to really begin to rise economically. well, you know, it’s a little easier for me, probably than many of my colleagues, to answer this question, because, in addition to representing our interests, the interests of our country in ethiopia , i am also concurrently the permanent representative of the russian federation to the

african union, so these integration processes, which are now taking place on the continent. they can be said to pass right before my eyes and indeed africa for the past. i would say that for two decades i have made many big steps forward, both in the development of the individual countries of the continent. uh, so in building up hmm collectively the voice of africa integration processes are intensively developing. e, it has moved into the practical plane in the formation of the african continental free trade area. this, of course, opens up broader prospects for cooperation in the future. there are regionals in it, including russia, uh, both with strange continents separately, and with a united africa, uh, and.

of course, there are many more problems here on this continent, er, many threats and challenges, including terrorism. unfortunately, often. uh, these problems arise with the help of our so-called- as a result of their thoughtless policy, when they behave here like an elephant in a china shop, it is enough to remember, uh, the destruction of a state like libya, which was not only a huge, uh, tragedy for the libyan people, but also caused a huge problem for all the neighbors of the neighbors of this. eh, the once powerful and fairly rich state. as from there gushed out an uncontrolled flow of terrorist militants of extremists of all stripes. uh, nevertheless

africans try to search. er, the solution to these problems and in this respect, the russian federation is fully in support of what was proclaimed by the african union. er, the slogan and principle of african problems are african solutions. for your part, you are ready to provide assistance, uh, there and to the extent, uh, in which we are asked. and yevgeny evgenievich, uh, such a question. or maybe , well, we talked about the good. let's criticize ourselves a little. and in general, are we doing everything to ensure that africa is with us. simply put, yes, but it’s understandable. on those conditions, we don’t need to conquer anything, there and so on, but nevertheless, but i understand and yours works our other diplomats. oh, and it bears fruit. we see this very well, but nevertheless, there is always something to improve, for you, er, to advise, maybe

some additional resources are needed in order to to develop our cooperation more actively. you know, you absolutely rightly put the question. uh, i think, well i should point out that literally in the last few years. uh, there are some really good positive developments, uh, that help us, uh, hope to work more intensively and fruitfully with our african partners. well, first of all. i would like to mention, held in october of the nineteenth year in sochi, the first russian africa e, which, as rightly noted, participated in the work this uh forum. uh, the african leader marked uh, the real return of russia to the african continent uh. since then,

many steps have already been taken to build up our, above all, trade and economic cooperation with the continent. unfortunately, not everything has been implemented. uh, since at the beginning the coronavirus intervened on the pandemic, then. uh, this flurry of some absolutely insane sanctions that the west is trying to impose on russia and present the case. so supposedly our country got into the international isolation. eh, but nevertheless we find ways to solve all those difficulties and problems that confront us and work. we are working on it. uh, new mechanism. e, promoting the development of our trade economic ties strengthens and develops its step-ups its activities. the russian export center and other similar mechanisms, so all this gives reason for

optimism. e, and. i'm sure next year's second. russia africa, we will approach it with new developments, and this is the second forum the russian african e, will give us a new one will open up new opportunities e for building up the russian presence in africa a evgenievich and more then you already touched on economic topics, and now an extremely acute question. well, there are a lot of them. of course, there are economic issues, but this topic is about settlements and, of course, from those sanctions that we constantly talk about, and settlements are in dollars. and if such work, and promotion in the field of settlements in national currencies, and between the african countries of ethiopia in particular and russia well, we have to frankly look at this problem

and speak frankly about it. er, still. we have been somewhat spoiled for more than seven decades by the nonsense of the ongut system. eh, it was very convenient to use a single system. uh, a single reserve currency. uh, but uh, as experience has shown, uh this system turned out to be not completely viable, or rather, it itself was undermined by the topic e by the forces that are now uh, trying to punish russia and flagging uh, various thousands of thousands of these are sanctions. well, nevertheless, we are used to overcoming difficulties. overcome. we are finding these problems, we are groping for ways to solve them, including the use of national currencies e-e

in mutual settlements. eh, looking for others. uh, options for making payments and settlements. yes , of course, not always and not everything works out right away, but there is progress and i am sure that, uh, we will overcome all this. evgeny evgenievich thank you very much. good luck with your work for sure. i think our cooperation with africa will, er, accelerate, and we will have many more conversations on topical issues. and in this matter. i am let me remind you that we spoke with evgeny terekhin , ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary, ambassador of russia, and in ethiopian e, the republic is the fifth studio.
