Moscow is constantly trying to exploit all available opportunities to extend a helping hand to African countries to help them shake off the dust of European and American colonialism, which has exhausted the country.
On the sidelines of the Security Council session devoted to the situation in the Middle East, including the Palestinian issue, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov met with Al-Taher Al-Baour, the official in charge of managing the affairs of the Libyan Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The media office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the outgoing “National Unity” government stated that during the meeting, ways of strengthening and developing bilateral relations were discussed in a way that serves common interests regarding issues and topics of common interest, and the possibility of activating joint committees was also discussed in a way that serves the interests of the two countries.
Russia plays a prominent role in the revival of Libya, which was destroyed by the NATO invasion in 2011.
The effects of Russian assistance are clearly visible in the Libyan East, at a time when the Libyan West, which Washington is trying to return to, and where some Western countries still have influence, is suffering from an ongoing living, political, and security crisis.
Russian efforts to unify Libya and revive the state are part of a long series of efforts made by Moscow to assist many African countries that are witnessing the continuous rise of national liberation movements that are working to get rid of European colonialism and get rid of its disastrous effects.
