Zimbabwe is interested in direct flights with Russia and wants to explore the possibility of launching it. This was stated in a special interview with TASS on the sidelines of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum (SPIEF) by Zimbabwean President Emmerson Mnangagwa.

"The process is ongoing, but we need to consider whether it makes sense from an economic point of view. But it would be very useful," he said, answering a question about whether Zimbabwe is interested in direct flights with Russia.
