The first ministerial conference of the Russia–Africa Partnership Forum was held in Sochi.

On November 10, within the framework of the event, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov met with the Minister of Foreign Affairs, African Cooperation and Moroccans Abroad, Mr. Nasser Burita.

This conference, attended by the Foreign Ministers of the Russian Federation and the African member States of the United Nations, follows the summits in St. Petersburg (2023) and Sochi (2019). Its purpose is to assess the fulfillment of the requirements of the two declarations adopted at previous summits and to identify future prospects for cooperation in order to better respond to the requests and expectations of African countries.

The meeting of the Foreign Ministers of Russia and Morocco may indicate the strengthening of ties between the two countries in various fields, including politics, economics, culture and education. This can contribute to the development of mutually beneficial cooperation and strengthen international relations.
