#1 Sergei's been under a lot of stress lately; his normal gibberish is more gibberishier than usual. (You know what I mean.)

#3 Well, then, that would be just grand.

Pardon me for a moment, I have the sudden urge to stock up on medical supplies and ammo.

#5 Everyone wants to trade with Russia can do so by way of Zimbabwae. Zimbabwae gets a cut for their efforts. If it works out I expect a small crowd of countries offering to be middle-men.

#6 Russia should be afraid of biting the pillar.

Hehehe. World-class snark, there.

Lavrov is just engaging in a little magician's patter. Soothing and distracting. What he means is "Gentlemen, there is money to be made!"

Africa will, no doubt, continue to be Africa for some time. This is just the Russians playing 2 moves ahead while everyone has their panties in a twist with the ME and Ukraine.
