Tanzania is interested in cooperation with Russia in the field of digital technologies, mining and energy. This was announced to Izvestia on October 28 by Prime Minister Mwigulu Lameka Nchem.

On the sidelines of the Russia—Africa forum, he noted that the event opens up new opportunities for joint investments and business partnerships.

"Given that we have a young population in Tanzania, digitalization and the digital economy are one of our priorities," Nchamba told Izvestia correspondent Nikolai Ivanov.

In addition, Ugandan Vice President Jessica Rose Epel Alupo recalled the historical ties with Russia, which has always supported African states in their struggle for independence.

"The main directions are agroindustrialization for the industrialization of Africa, trade between Russia and Africa, as well as science, technology and innovation so that Africa can become economically independent," she said.

"A multipolar world is really becoming a reality"
