Nandi-Ndaitwah was speaking during a meeting with Russian deputy prime minister Yury Trutnev in Windhoek on Friday.

She added that Trutnev’s visit to Namibia is a demonstration of his commitment to strengthening the bilateral relations and cooperation between Namibia and Russia.
According to Nandi-Ndaitwah, bilateral cooperation between the two countries continues to be strengthened and broadened through the signing of and implementation of a variety of legal instruments. These instruments range from those dealing with education, particularly higher education, trade, mutual legal assistance in criminal matters, to those relating to partnership cooperation between cities, Nandi-Ndaitwah said.
