Sputnik Expands Cooperation With African Media
09:02 GMT 07.10.2022 (Updated: 11:38 GMT 23.11.2022) Sputnik News Agency and Radio and Ethiopian News Agency signed a memorandum of understanding in Addis Ababa on Thursday. This is the first document in Sputnik’s history concerning cooperation with the Ethiopian media.
The parties agreed to increase cooperation both in the field of content exchange and with respect to joint projects. The document was signed by Vasily Pushkov, Director of International Cooperation at Sputnik, and Johannes Wondirad, Director of Public Relations and Strategic Partnerships at ENA.
Following the signing ceremony, Vasily Pushkov commented: “Ethiopia is an example of a country where desire to cooperate with Russia is not just words but actions. I’m glad that our partnership with ENA reached a new level with the signing of this MoU. We see great prospects for cooperation between Ethiopia and Russia in the media sphere, and we are sure that there’ll be even more common initiatives in the future."
ENA CEO Seife Deribe Ebdale said: "This MoU is a good opportunity to exchange news and news-related issues with Sputnik News Agency and to communicate with Russian people.
Russia and Ethiopia have good relations in any bilateral issues and they use this cooperation for the benefit of the two countries. So I hope this MoU will soon change into a Memorandum of Action. We have many issues to cooperate on, especially cultural issues and social issues."
