Vice President Dr Constantino Chiwenga has arrived in Russia to attend a digitisation conference as Zimbabwe moves to accelerate its digital economy agenda and drive economic transformation.
The Digital Industry of Industrial Russia (CIPR) is one of Russia’s largest annual platforms for digital economy development and industrial digitisation.
It brings together industry leaders and technology experts to explore practical approaches to data-driven growth, international tech cooperation, and industrial software solutions.
The Vice President is on record thanking Russia for standing firm in support of Zimbabwe’s sovereignty in the face of an ever-present threat from imperial powers.
He singled out Russia’s support for Zimbabwe’s liberation struggle as well as the 2008 vote when Russia and the People’s Republic of China vetoed the United Nations (UN) sanctions against Zimbabwe, which had been sponsored by the West.
