MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT
Dear readers,
This week, we collected for you the most important developments in Africa. We aimed to give you a new perspective with the most important headlines in social, cultural, economic and political fields.
I think that the Africa-Russia Summit in our headline of the week is an important development for Russia to redevelop its relations with Africa. With the continuous development of Africa, we see different players in the region. We have listed the most important subject headings for you at this summit.
I would like to express our sadness for all the people who suffered from floods in Central Africa and landslides in Cameroon.
The struggle of South Africa to protect decreasing water resources is very important. I am aware of the fact that every region should perform its duty in changing climate conditions. This world is all ours.
The Seychelles President's statement on global warming is also remarkable at this point.
We hope our content will be useful for you.
Sincerely,
President of TAFAC
Abdulaziz Unal
