The third Russia‑Africa summit opened in Moscow on Wednesday, 28 October, with delegations from 48 African countries, including 22 heads of state. Algeria’s delegation was led by Prime Minister Sifi Ghrieb, representing President Abdelmadjid Tebboune, and was joined by Foreign Affairs Minister Ahmed Attaf and Hydrocarbons Minister Mohamed Arkab.

In a speech read by the prime minister, President Tebboune underscored Algeria’s status as one of the world’s top ten gas producers and its position as the EU’s second‑largest gas supplier via pipeline.

A business salon ran alongside the plenary sessions, where Rosatom showcased low‑power nuclear reactors, medical nuclear solutions and engineer training, while Rosoboronexport displayed a multi‑layer air‑defence and anti‑drone system. Vladimir Putin was scheduled to visit the salon with African leaders.

Security around the Kremlin, delegation hotels and conference routes was tight, with barriers and a dense police presence; Russian authorities also considered restricting mobile‑internet access in central Moscow during the summit.

On 27 October, the Forum of Gas‑Exporting Countries met in Moscow and adopted a declaration affirming sovereign rights over natural resources and highlighting gas as a stable energy source and fertilizer input. The summit’s second day will run under the theme “For peace, security and development”, featuring plenary sessions, a declaration on artificial‑intelligence cooperation, the Russia‑Africa Action Plan 2027‑2029 and the signing of several economic agreements.

Additional programmes include a Russia‑Africa media forum to discuss cooperation and misinformation, the “Sustainable Development Platform” exhibition of Russian solutions, and an Economic and Humanitarian Forum co‑presided by President Vladimir Putin and Burundi President Évariste Ndayishimiye, all aimed at deepening trade, investment, energy, digital transformation and food‑security ties between Russia and African states.
