The prime minister also expressed his relief that the head of the Russian House in CAR was on the mend. "When I saw him, I was glad, because his health is improving.

Syty was hospitalized in Bangui in December 2022 after an assassination attempt. According to police, the Russian diplomat received a bomb in a parcel, which exploded on a table in his office while he was going through his mail. Prior to the attack, Syty had received threats.
