The meeting takes place during a particularly charged geopolitical moment and will attract more intense scrutiny than the first Russia-Africa Summit in 2019.<\/p>\n<p>Will African states manage to work together to shape the outcomes in the continent\u2019s favour? Or will the high-profile event be yet another case of geopolitical pageantry aimed at courting African leaders? The summit is expected to convene at least 40 African heads of state and senior leaders.<\/p>\n<p>It will focus on deepening cooperation between Moscow and African capitals across five broad areas: politics, security, economic relations, science and technology, and cultural and humanitarian engagement.<\/p>\n<p>This ambitious agenda includes a parallel Economic and Humanitarian Forum intended to \u2018diversify the scope and nature of Russian-African cooperation, in turn setting the course of its long-term development.<\/p>\n<p>The scale of the gathering reflects Moscow\u2019s recent strategic pivot back to Africa \u2013 and its attempts to reclaim ground lost to other global powers vying for influence on the continent.<\/p>\n<p>Organisers say the summit\u2019s 2019 Economic Forum in Sochi convened over 6 000 participants and led to the signing of 92 trade agreements and memorandums worth over US$12.5 billion.<\/p>\n<p>This mirrors other high-level Africa+1 meetings such as the 2022 US-Africa Leaders Summit, the Eighth Tokyo International Conference on African Development in 2022, and the 2018 Beijing Summit of the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (and subsequent ministerial meeting in Dakar in 2021), among others.<\/p>\n<p>These events are useful for coordinating strategic priorities, but the 2023 Russia-Africa Summit is arguably far more significant for Moscow. Since the Sochi summit, Russia has turned sharply towards Africa to circumvent Western isolation following its invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.<\/p>\n<p>The St Petersburg meeting is a chance to show that Moscow has not been isolated and has alternative partners willing to deepen their cooperation with the Kremlin.<\/p>\n<p>The optics will be of prime concern for Russia, since little progress has been achieved on bilateral trade and investment over the past four years, primarily due to COVID-19 and the Ukraine war.<\/p>\n<p>Moscow will be looking to bolster Sochi\u2019s numbers regardless of whether they lead to tangible outcomes. This evolving approach towards Africa is reflected in Russia\u2019s updated Foreign Policy Concept. The 2016 policy contained only a handful of references to Africa.<\/p>\n<p>The 2023 version elevates the continent\u2019s importance, noting Moscow\u2019s intent to support Africa as a \u2018distinctive and influential centre of world development\u2019 through improved bilateral relations, trade, and scientific and humanitarian cooperation.<\/p>\n<p>Africa seems to feature higher on the list of priorities than Europe, the US, and Latin America and the Caribbean \u2013 but below the Arctic, Eurasia (India and China), and the Asia-Pacific region. The question of what African states want from the summit is more complex.<\/p>\n<p>Since Russia invaded Ukraine, global fault lines have deepened, with Africa at the centre of a charm offensive by international powers seeking support for their approach to the international order.<\/p>\n<p>As the largest regional grouping in the United Nations (UN) General Assembly \u2013 and the region most divided on condemning Russian aggression \u2013 Africa\u2019s geostrategic stock has risen.<\/p>\n<p>The continent\u2019s development agenda would ordinarily be the priority in its engagements with external partners. But that\u2019s no longer as straightforward or prominent as it once was.<\/p>\n<p>Who African states collaborate with and how they do so may become a growing concern for continental leaders in an international system in flux. To recentre Africa\u2019s development needs, countries must proactively set the agenda and map responsibilities in Africa+1 meetings.<\/p>\n<p>African governments still play a largely secondary role in initiating these engagements, framing the agenda and contributing to the outcomes. Food security is a case in point.<\/p>\n<p>On 17 July, Russia withdrew from the Black Sea grain deal, citing its unhappiness with arrangements for the export of Russian grain and fertiliser. This might increase global food prices, threatening food security in many African countries.<\/p>\n<p>Regardless of whether Russia re-commits to the deal before the summit, African leaders must actively voice their concerns about food security in the context of the ongoing war.<\/p>\n<p>In St Petersburg, African leaders should also review the 2019 Sochi declaration to reaffirm many of its provisions which have since been violated by Moscow.<\/p>\n<p>Articles 31-37 on \u2018Legal Cooperation\u2019, for example, are explicit regarding respect for international law, condemnation of unilateral military interventions and using force in violation of the UN Charter.<\/p>\n<p>African states cannot overlook such glaring inconsistencies that underpin their vast strategic partnership with Russia. Without some pushback, African governments could be seen as passive agents, simply rubber-stamping Moscow\u2019s pursuit of its own narrow global interests.<\/p>\n<p>One positive development is African leaders\u2019 commitment to continue the discussion on resolving the Ukraine war. The summit comes almost a month after the first African peace mission, which saw seven countries\u2019 leaders engaging with Ukraine and Russia in an attempt to reach a settlement.<\/p>\n<p>Senegalese President Macky Sall recently said African leaders would \u2018continue to use the Russia-Africa summit to see how we can move forward on the negotiations we tried to implement between Russia and Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p>\u2019 Leaders expected Russia to show a commitment to peace, including releasing prisoners of war and returning Ukrainian children taken by Russia during the conflict. As geopolitical fractures worsen over the foreseeable future, African states should adopt a more assertive approach to Africa+1 engagements.<\/p>\n<p>This will move the continent beyond summitry and the interests of the \u2018plus ones\u2019 \u2013 and towards a firmer footing for negotiating collective African interests on the world stage.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/mauritius\">Mauritius<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Mauritius.
