DUBAI, 1 March, 2021, (TON): On Sunday, the media reported that a Russian warship has entered a Sudanese port where Moscow plans to build a naval base on Sudan’s Red Sea coast.

Admiral Grigorovich is the first Russian warship to enter Port Sudan.

In November, Russia announced a deal that outlined the creation of a logistical support center in Sudan where repairs and resupply operations would take place, as well as providing rest for crew members.

Under the deal, Russia will also be given the right to transport weapons, ammunition, and equipment via Sudan’s ports and airports.

It is noted that Moscow has been exploring Africa for this purpose as it enhances its geopolitical standing.
