Russia and Mozambique have reaffirmed their defence cooperation following a high-level meeting between Foreign Ministers Sergey Lavrov and Maria Manuela Lucas in Moscow. Marking 50 years of diplomatic ties, both sides praised growing military collaboration. Lavrov pledged continued Russian support in combating terrorism, particularly in northern Mozambique’s Cabo Delgado province, where an ISIS-linked insurgency has displaced over a million people. The meeting comes amid Moscow’s wider push to expand influence in Africa, especially in junta-led Sahel nations. While expressing concern over the Ukraine war, Mozambique urged peace and highlighted its impact on African food security and global economic stability. --- Mozambique | Russia | Sergey Lavrov | Maria Manuela Lucas | Moscow | Maputo | Vladimir Putin | Firstpost Africa | Alyson Le Grange | Africa | Global South | Geopolitics | Military Coup | Environment | Climate Change | Firstpost | News Live | World News | Latest News | Global News | International News | News | Trending News #mozambique #russia #sergeylavrov #putin #maputo #firstpostafrica #africa #alysonlegrange #globalsouth #militarycoup #firstpost #newslive #worldnews #latestnews #globalnews #news #internationalnews #trendingnews Firstpost is an Indian news and media website.
