In the past ten years, under Putin’s leadership, Russia has made a comeback to Africa, the second-largest and most populous continent in the world. To fulfill its goal of becoming a worldwide powerhouse, Russia has altered its perspective on Africa. Russia is now more prosperous and stable than it was in the 1990s. The assessment and evaluation of many body of literature led to the development of the research technique. The paper’s main objective was to examine how Russia’s foreign policy toward African countries changed after the turn of the millennium and helped to advance its quick actions. The article also fills a gap in the literature on Russian foreign policy toward African governments after 2000. It assesses the socioeconomic interactions between the two nations’ strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and dangers. It also shows that Russia’s efforts in Africa have had a greater impact on the dysfunctional incapacity of African nations to fit in with normative settings. The text concludes by urging African nations to unite and embrace African socialism.
