attractive. works and all development in my opinion. in today's conditions, well, the members of our organization, they are not friendly against someone, they work interests between our strange across from the development. vayutsya, when the national calculations are nothing. and in this regard, i think there, we also represent. a certain noticeable hand in the development of the directions of our country, and joint activities were discussed, and at a meeting with the prime minister of ethiopia, he was impressed for the first time in st. petersburg by the beauty of the city, like the entire delegation that participated in the negotiations in an expanded format, but both ahmed specified to focus on

deep and strong roots and have always been characterized by stability, trust and benevolence. this is a quote and articles by vladimir putin on the eve of the summit in st. petersburg about how the city was preparing for the forum, varvara nevskaya will tell on overcoming these thousands of kilometers, when you left for many months, which, however, did not stop russian painters who strive to see with their own eyes and of course capture this distant , charming and therefore so alluring africa peter fotkin was absolutely captivated by africa and his journey, which hmm was not too long, but it did not have a very strong impact in letters to his relatives, he wrote that he forgot his gray paint. this riot of the elements of the nature of the sun absolutely conquered africa in russian art - this is egypt, morocco, algeria and tunisia on the canvases of great russian artists. petrova-vodkina serebryakova basta brothers makovsky and chervnetsov more than

50 works oil on bed graphics pearls, collection of the russian museum many of them for the first time , the world's hottest continent is presented to a wide audience , zerowood is multifaceted in its culture. what is the african film industry called? well, he is ahead of his american counterpart and is confidently stepping on the heels of india, releasing a total of 10,000 films a year, the best of these works will be shown within the framework of the festival by the days of african culture and cinema at the lenfilm of work, iskonga south africa and other countries, budgets, many of the films seem incredibly small, but the value of these works is not in special effects, but in sincerity and prostate, so the cult thriller and zuganda. who killed captain alex was filmed for only $ 200, the director paid only a bus for the group, the main man, there isaac once sold bricks on cans, and then decided to become. eh, as a director, i bought an old video camera with the guys, drove it to a landfill

, took it with metal, welded it, some camera equipment invited their friends and they shoot a very cool movie. this is the kung fu fighters of african culture in the northern capital, a rare opportunity to know more of the country's space. separated from us by time zones and oceans, but with each becoming closer and clearer in the run-up to petersburg , the descendants of the legendary african leaders who see the future of their countries outside the flames of the western powers arrived in st. petersburg. we must not lose sight of where we came from, otherwise we will lose ourselves before the colonizers have come to our shores. there was a way of life of our people, and he served us well. we must learn from the culture of who we are, who allowed western countries to control our resources , we ourselves, if we begin to believe in ourselves in the independence of our continent, the ability get rid of the control of the western powers, then we will begin to win africa is not just today's strategic partner, but

an old friend with whom russia is associated with many years of history, an exhibition, st. st. petersburg seems to have become an exhibition space itself, allowing everyone who wants to get a little closer to africa, not just get acquainted with the art and culture of the african continent. well, literally try africa to taste. all. this is, perhaps, within the framework of the gastrofest of the stars of africa, for example. here is a dish served in one of the st. petersburg restaurants married sardines, because the fish lean against each other during cooking. this fish marriage, root porridge, manyoki ostrich sausage, spicy stew with coconut, and chili are complemented by dozens of variations of cooking fish , chicken and meat, about 400 unique recipes of african cuisine, gastrofest united more than twenty restaurants of the northern capital. in each of them will be able to try their own

africa and not without a st. petersburg accent. we did not focus on the regions. yes, some separate positions, uh, in this or that region of africa, because africa is diverse somewhere islam is somewhere. yes asia is more present. we put it all together and made such a menu. here, for example, south and north africa is the center. african married sardines. they are all over the place, all along the coast. and this is also all over the coast. that is, we simply took and united in our kitchen so that guests we got to know each other in st. petersburg, in general the residents of st. petersburg got to know each other, at the end of the kitchen they gave such a common vision of our vision of african cuisine the keeper of a thousand-year history of original, bright independent, able to surprise africa in all its pristine beauty throwing on the screens in swamp painters and in the gastro works of the chef chefs a large-scale cultural program dedicated to the summit, an economic and humanitarian forum open to all comers. russia africa will start in st. petersburg tomorrow and will be held on the twenty-seventh and 208 july varvara nevskaya sergey velichko and dmitry

unlimited megafon to talk about life, here we will talk about africa from a completely different angle as about the territory of the future, on which russia still has a lot of

allies from soviet times. africa's resource potential, which in total accounts for about 30 percent of the world's total resource potential, is absolutely unique there is a giant economic growth spurt around the fortieth year africa makes the same economic breakthrough as china did we are in a better position than western europe because they are accepted by everyone -as a colonizer, this is our big plus and we need use it constantly. for 400,000 households, most of them will be used in the fields. they perceived this as the fact that russia is absolutely not striving to create a famine in africa, but, on the contrary, it

is solving african problems. and they solve them absolutely disinterestedly. today to russian investors. you need to spend money somewhere in russia to eat your own specific options now, except for the african continent to bring money there. i don't see yet. if two or three years ago they still twisted their fingers and literally said that yes, i'm better than money i'll give it to the moon, i'll send ladies on a rocket, because you have all the theft, bribes and so on there in africa. now

it has changed dramatically. in 1919, our institute also took an active part in the preparations for the russia-africa summit. there was tremendous enthusiasm on the part of our african friends, because they said that finally, finally, russia had demonstrated that it wanted to return to africa. 10,000 delegates, 44 leaders of the fifty-four who attended the summit , there were big grandiose plans that contracts worth $15 billion were signed. as you understand, at the beginning there was a pandemic of a kind and a rupture in the connection between a drop in trade by more than a third, and then a special military operation, which introduced a very large specificity, international relations, and in the conditions of the most severe sanctions , russia has to look for some workarounds or new ways for interaction with african partners, however. now the african market is gaining more and more. relevance talk about africa as the continent of the future, based on

several important factors. the first is the so-called demographic dividend. 60% of the population of africa under 25 years of age, the ratio between non-working workers is gradually developing in favor of the working population. and what does this mean, there is a giant leap in economic growth of about 40 years, africa is making the same economic breakthrough that china did in 1990. china had 770 billion dollars, and ukraine's gdp is 400 billion. going on similar processes. another factor in favor of the economic prospects of africa is the resource potential of the continent, which is 30% of the total world. and resources. not just oil and gas. there are some

fuel metals that traditional gold diamonds are platinum. we are now developing very rapidly suppose. and the it sphere is developing. the green economy is developing the production of space. and all the necessary materials for the production of these high-tech goods are in africa ; moreover, in africa, uh, their cost mining is much further than the world average. they are not fully explored and finally. these resources have not yet been fully distributed, that is, international players have the opportunity to one way or another join these resources and get them on favorable terms for them. the first soviet specialists worked at the mines in guinea back in the sixties, the country is extremely rich in natural resources. mining generates

about 20% of gdp and is the fastest growing sector. approximately 20% of the world's bauxite reserves are located in guinea. extremely, low production, because of the very high level of occurrence and our company. uh , the largest mermaid about 25-30% of all raw materials that are used for aluminum production in russia went and look, in addition to such large companies, there, uh, there are norkut. they are well aware of both local traditions and the local population and know how to find an approach to both the local and the industrial and political elite. they all work closely on vkontakte with both of them and, in general, business examples, and it’s enough at fifteen to six in the morning geotechnical engineer momo

bandua is already ready to go to work, he works at the lefa gold mine. i've never had a problem. here, thanks to his work, he was able to build a house and educate children and develop himself professionally. the russian company nord gold has been operating in guinea since 2008 and plans to launch underground gold mining in december. this will make it possible to extract approximately twice as much precious metal from one ton of ore. the lefa gold mine is considered one of the largest gold reserves in guinea. there's enough here for another 11 years of production, perhaps more, since exploration work is carried out constantly. this equipment allows you to monitor how rocks are moving and warn of a possible collapse, all information is transferred to a computer for accurate data, we go to the office. see, the yellow zone is a potentially dangerous

area. gold mining at the mine takes place in an open way. here, several quarries blow up the pond at once, and then load it onto special vehicles, only the height of their wheels is about three meters. in each such car is placed about 100 tons in one ton contains approximately 1.5 g of gold. to ensure the influx of specialists, north goal built a profession school similar to our vocational school near the mine. now they are waiting for permission from the local authorities to start their studies. here , anyone who wants to study from the age of eighteen can study such professions as a welder, electrician, mechanic, the courses are designed for 3 years, there will be both theoretical and practical classes , local specialists will be engaged in training. welcome to feel at home. here we gather with the family, have dinner, watch

tv company, there is both electricity and sewerage, cold and hot water, which for most locals is a luxury. next year he will be celebrating 30 years of marriage, seven children, five, already grown up and scattered all over the world. we help them. well , besides the fact that we hire a fairly large number of people directly, that is , they are our full-time employees. so we hire contractors, we hire service companies that are also registered, uh in guinea and uh, we help, and in the social field we sponsor hospital schools. we have built a fairly large number of infrastructure social facilities. one of these objects. this is the new village with an area of ​​50 hectares. about 2,000 people are planned to be transferred here, and they did not arbitrarily settle nearby and it stretches

in outbuildings, which can hardly be called houses of living conditions. there is no water, only during the rains there is no electricity, the only income. this is the vision of agriculture . the new village was named cards. together with me, my neighbors, guys, whom i knew as children , such houses as we build ourselves have never even seen, of course, cannot be compared with where we live. now rudik provides over a thousand jobs by purchasing goods and ordering services from local residents. in addition, the company intends to employ an additional 300 people. after they start underground mining, when you go very deep, you have to remove a very large volume from the roof and thus incur very high costs if you continue to mine hmm a open pit gold. at the same time, the underground mining method allows hmm to minimize these costs and go directly through the native

body, this is the first mine in underground guinea and indeed, this is, uh, a unique project for the country, which we develop in such a way that we bring new expertise new experience. hey employees. will be trained, well for themselves a skill. the rapid development of the continent and high potential for prospects contribute to increased competition between the main foreign players in africa which countries are fighting for africa today with whom our interests collide on the continent in december, uh, twenty-second year, the us africa summit was held and, indeed, quite a lot, i think, more than 20 leaders, if i'm not mistaken, came to the united states of america , that's where the main program that was put forward. mm, in relation to africa, there were two paragraphs containing the first paragraph. this is something that countries should in no case

cooperate with china's russia who will be well -behaved to investigate. here in line with this policy, he will receive the money will receive 54 billion dollars over three years. uh, well, only countries that are right and well -behaved will get it. you see, firstly, the africans were very offended, because at that time only 100 billion dollars had already been transferred to ukraine, for ukraine alone, it was all africa , respectively, 54 billion dollars, when i meet with africans, well, we ask them what are you waiting for from russia they say we need technology from you, and we need your education from you pull out the whole chain of our relations with africa and what would distinguish us from all other players on the african continent could be cooperation in the field of technology

and in the humanitarian field. this conference brought together representatives of the russian industry , which, in the current economic reality, is looking for new foreign markets to scale their business, the company does not want to go to africa. it seems to me that you don’t really have an option. now mikhail lyapin is the founder of a finte company that works in the field of online lending to build his business from scratch he started in kenya 6 years ago and today he has a rare but sought-after expertise in launching a business in africa today for russian investors, including venture investors who gathered at this event, and they need to spend money somewhere in russia has its own specifics now and options, except for the african continent, all the money goes there. i don't see it yet mikhail analyzed

the statistics for the region and names the most promising areas. gorka alternative energy superbom is now attracting investment in this market electric bikes electric vehicles are now one of the market leaders not to build all the processes on the continent have their own local features, which are very different from the country. this means that africa is a geographical concept, it is not a social, not some kind of uncultured, not a business tectonic plate. in fact, there are two of them, even a common colonial past, but it is different for everyone. here, for example, in the french colonies, it is very different in the british colonies, but the needs are very different too, for example, the senegalese. it's all wow here's to me heaven and earth. between them, the galaxy is generally a million-strong forest, in order to successfully enter the continent with your startup, it is important to stop thinking about africa in stereotypes of reality. there are stereotypes in my head,

there is chukovsky and so on. it must be crocodiles now. this was also said to the bride by one, and everything is tied to the child’s pay, mikhail never paid, many convinced that the short-term lending scheme at a high percentage, the company that was not working for africa , would burn out, well, who will repay the loan if the average income of residents of the capital is $ 150, and he analyzed all the risks of the existing offers in the niche and decided to try. this is a pipe. well, judging by the paved road. they are already trying to be a civilized area in 10 years, it will be possible to live here as an expat. maybe even who knows. what, mainly in such areas live those people who apply for services for

microloans to your company 90% will rush already in such conditions. it was kenya that mikhail chose for his startup, not by chance , several important factors coincided. kenya is closer to russia kenya's 50 million inhabitants are growing good pace. enough. i understand the level of security. i looked that there are few competitors in this country. we can kill them and i chose kenya. developed by his company , it has been downloaded 650,000 times. the total amount of loans amounted to $1.4 million for 40% of borrowers. these are small entrepreneurs who work on
