MOSCOW, July 28. /TASS/. The success of the Russia-Africa summit shows that Moscow's positions on the continent are very strong, Russian Ambassador to the UK Andrey Kelin said on Rossiya-24 television.

"The success of the summit, which is already evident now, shows that Russia's positions in Africa are very strong, and our adversaries are very much worried about it. They have not been able to push Russia out of there yet," he said.
