On December 1, 2020, a military parade in honor of Republic Day was held in the capital of the Central African Republic, Bangui. At the parade, armored reconnaissance and patrol vehicles BRDM-2, donated by Russia free of charge within the framework of military-technical assistance, were demonstrated for the first time. The protection of high-ranking officials, including the country's President Faustin-Archange Touadera, was carried out by Russian military advisers, and the passage of armored vehicles was opened by a Russian drum band. As Kommersant previously reported, in 2018, the Russian Ministry of Defense sent five military and 170 Russian civilian instructors to the CAR to train servicemen for the Central African army.
