Russian economy and the specifics of the current type of development of the global economic model make it both easier and more natural for Moscow to explore less competitive international markets, like African ones. On the other hand, the West would be less inclined to wage fierce battles for the peripheral markets than for European or rapidly growing Asian ones. Despite all the difficulties major Russian corporations manage to establish alliances with western capital and in some cases Russian capital enters African markets under American or European colors. Finally, a whole new page of interaction between African and Russian capital may begin after the Republic of South Africa has become a member of the BRICS club. Joint strategies in mutually attractive areas are likely to produce breakthrough results in the sphere of technological innovations, including the mining sector. 1 Van Wijnbergen, Sweder. “The ‘Dutch Disease’: A Disease After All?” //The Economic Journal, 1984 v. 94, No. 373.
