African Peace Mission to Russia, Ukraine Examined

The Kremlin said on Monday it would continue to talk to the African peace mission seeking to mediate in the conflict with Ukraine, notably at a Russia-Africa summit next month. The remarks follow the visit by African leaders to Moscow and Kyiv. Senegalese President Macky Sall and South African President Cyril Ramaphosa led the delegation, which included leaders from Zambia, the Comoros and the prime minister of Egypt. For analysis on what the Africa peace mission accomplished in Kyiv and Moscow, VOA’s Esther Githui-Ewart spoke to Kenneth Mwenda, a Professor of Law at the University of Western Cape in Cape Town, South Africa.
