According to reports, last month Russia\u2019s defence minister and air force chief visited the country in another sign of strengthening ties.<\/p>\n<p>In a statement outside the hangar, Mali\u2019s armed forces chief, Maj Gen Oumar Diarra said, \u201cThis delivery is a demonstration of our fruitful partnership and strong political will.
