Attempted Putin: WP journalists told who support the Russian Federation in the war against Ukraine
It is reported that there is a lot of evidence that the attempt to isolate Putin has failed. And it is not just about China, Iran or India, from which many expected Russian support. Yes, the publication writes that the Navy of South Africa will participate in military exercises with Russia and China in the Indian Ocean. According to the representative of the opposition party Democratic Alliance of South Africa Kobus Marais, South Africa became a "useful idiot" for Russia.
The country can become a complicit of war crimes if later the multi -purpose frigate Admiral Gorshkov will go to the shelling of Ukraine. It is also reported that South Africa has its reasons to maintain Russia's loyalty, despite the risks. So the Soviet Union supported the ruling party "African National Congress" for decades. Moreover, conversations with people in South Africa, Kenya and India say that the citizens of these countries are in a large way west.
They remember the centuries of colonialism, talk about the arrogance of Western countries, and that they do not allocate the same amount of resources to resolve conflicts in other parts of the world. According to journalists, 141 out of 193 countries in the UN voted for condemnation of Russia after the invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022. Then, in October, 143 countries condemned the annexation of the occupied territories of Ukraine.
However, only 33 states imposed sanctions against the Russian Federation. According to William Hiss, the founder of the Democracy is working in Johannesburg, the support of many countries in Africa of the Kremlin is based on a strong way in the United States, which lose interest in solving their problems. After the departure of the event from Africa, the initiative was picked up there by Russia and China, which provides an alternative to the so -called "event hegemony".
Now the struggle is also continuing for influence in the Middle East, Asia and Latin America. The material states that despite the West's attempts to attribute global inflation and a food crisis to the Russian invasion, most countries of the world accuse the West of imposing sanctions. Sibal, former foreign minister of India, is given this opinion. "The other world sincerely sees this European war. They do not see a global conflict or how the event represents," he said.
Earlier, the Gi-Toc NGO stated that Russia secretly sells weapons to South Sudan. According to independent journalists, the Russian Federation continues to supply military goods even after the introduction of the UN embargo through a civil war in the African country. We also remind that Financial Times journalists have stated that Russia is buying new allies cheaply. Moscow is actively investing to establish an impact in a number of Africa.
