The Russian Federation has opened a honorary consulate in Banjul, capital city of The Gambia, The Daily Observer reports.
The honorary consul of the Russian Federation in The Gambia, Mr. Momodou Lamin Manga said in a press release that “The opening of the office is a clear indication of strong ties between Moscow and Banjul. The two countries have enjoyed fruitful relations over the past 50 years, and there is a lot in the pipeline to cement ties.”
The consul added that many Gambians have had the opportunity to study in Russia and as a result, he is pleased to reveal that two Gambian students will benefit from scholarships offered for the next academic year.
“There are many areas of interest and cooperation being undertaken by the two governments which should bring its people closer,” he was further quoted in the press release.
