Along with Belarus, Syria, and North Korea, Eritrea was one of only four countries not including Russia to vote against a United Nations General Assembly resolution condemning Russia's 2022 invasion of Ukraine. However, Eritrea abstained from voting on the UN resolution pertaining to the territorial integrity of Ukraine, which was held in response to the 2022 annexation referendums in Russian-occupied Ukraine. In 2023, Eritrea’s President Isaias Afwerki voiced support for the Russian invasion of Ukraine. In January 2023, the foreign minister of Russia and senior advisors traveled to Eritrea meeting with President Afwerki, the Eritrean foreign minister and other senior officials. Afwerki visited Russia on an official state visit in spring of 2023, the first in the history of Russia-Eritrea relations. Both Eritrean and Russian leaders held talks.
