The Russian Ambassador to South Africa, Roman Ambarov, visited the Soweto commun

The Russian Ambassador to South Africa, Roman Ambarov, visited the Soweto community to commemorate the 1976 Soweto Uprising at the Hector Pieterson Museum and to explore the life of the globally recognized anti-apartheid leader at Mandela House.

During his visit to the museum, Roman Ambarov recorded his thoughts in the guestbook, stating:

"I would like to express my gratitude on behalf of the Russian Embassy in South Africa to the museum and its staff for preserving the memories of these tragic events. I take pride in the fact that my country—Russia, then the Soviet Union—stood in solidarity with the ANC and all South African freedom fighters in our shared quest for peace and freedom in South Africa."

The Russian Embassy conveys its heartfelt appreciation to our South African friends who facilitated this significant event.
