Russia’s foreign minister Sergei Lavrov is in Ethiopia today.

It’s the last stop on a tour trying to bolster support amongst African countries.

Much of the continent has been badly affected by grain shortages caused by Russia’s war in Ukraine. But Mr Lavrov denies the country’s role in the global food crisis.

And Moscow is keen to strengthen ties with this continent where many countries have been reluctant to take sides and condemn the war in Ukraine.

On Tuesday Mr Lavrov was in Uganda, where Africa Daily's Alan Kasujja was able to attend his joint press conference with President Museveni.
