MOSCOW (Sputnik) - Africa will become one of the centers of multipolar world to be created following the "profound" transformations, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said on Sunday.
"In addition to the joint statement that I mentioned, we also had very deep discussions on these topics. And these topics directly relate to the profound transformations that are taking place in the world, which will culminate, undoubtedly, in the formation of a multipolar architecture. And one of the centers of the multipolar world, of course, should be and will be the African continent," Lavrov said at the closing ceremony of the first Ministerial Conference of the Russia-Africa Partnership Forum.
