Africa had maintained a neutral position in the Ukraine war. Even then, Ukraine’s foreign minister conveyed the desire of his country to deepen ties with Africa. About 25 African countries either voted to abstain or did not vote at all on the United Nations resolution that condemned the Russian Invasion of Ukraine.
