Russia is ready to continue providing humanitarian aid to the Republic if necessary, Putin said, adding that Russia and the CAR will continue to cooperate on security issues.


For his part, Touadera expressed his gratitude to Russian instructors for their contribution to the development of relations between the countries.

The president also thanked Russia for grain and fuel supplies to Bangui, as well as thanked Putin for the support that allowed the country to return to stability and take its place among sovereign states.
