Russia has faced a staggering njnherod restrictions and international sanctions since its unawful invasion of Ukraine.
In other news, Russia simultaneously announced that six African nations will benefit from an upcoming deal. In the deal, which is in its final stages, would see grain delivered to Zimbabwe, Mali, Burkina Faso, Eritrea, Somalia, and the Central African Republic.
