President Cyril Ramaphosa is expected at the White House at approximately 5.30pm South African time today for a much anticipated bilateral meeting with US President Donald Trump.
Chief Diplomat Ronald Lamola, part of a a quartet of Ministers who briefed the President yesterday, confirmed that the delegation was upbeat and looking forward to reset what he described as a mutually beneficial relationship.
The Presidency also remained tight-lipped about a possible meeting with Elon Musk and potential opportunities that might be explored while the billionaire continues to misrepresent the facts around his difficulties in getting a licence to operate his internet service Starlink in South Africa.

Love how Elon says it how it is. Clear and accurate.
Mr Steenhuizen you speak now with forked tongue. White brothers dont trust you anymore. Genocide is occuring in our country
He saw the Zimbabwe situation coming to south africa then he had to quickly go and save south africa not himself unlike zanu pf Zimbabwe who are full of themselves and I thank the south african unity government for saving south africa
Stop all race based legislation
Totally just covering the truth..this president only care for his ANC he is not a president of all people
Bullpoo
Was gesnotklap. What a bummer.
They think they're going to talk about finances….LOL
Rampies, hy gaan vir jou ore aan sit. ๐
If everything goes "well" then Ramaphosa will claim credit. If it goes sour, he will blame Trump.
ANC will notnallow Starlink unless Elon is going to give them something under the table. When Elon said no, then he was the bad person. What a bunch of Clown this ANC government is.
Letโs hope he doesnโt get the Zelansky treatment ๐
So he's out there acting like royalty but he is a criminal, he should be sent to prison!!!
๐ฃSOUTH AFRICA. What most people, local and abroad, probably do not understand is that, when we voted for democratic change in 1994, we voted for a new progressive, democratic, non-racial rainbow regime driven nation.
What now has transpired is that, instead of a democratic government, South Africans, of whom 85%+ of its citizens identify as Judeo-Christian, are being governed and bullied by a Marxist, pro-Socialist, pro-Communist, pro-Iran, pro-Hamas, anti-Israel, anti-Freemarket, anti-Semitic, anti-economic growth, defunct, 1960s style liberation movement, of whom the members still, amusingly, address each other by the obsolete, Sovietesque "Comrade".
As far as farm attacks are concerned, the South African president is a president in denial because it won't bode well for his image and government to declare such farm attacks as a priority crime.

Haha I love it it when the ANC freaks out under international spotlights.
Does anyone know if a livestream is planned?
You don't need Trump, remember?
Silly how people TALK WHITE MONOPOLY, but keep chasing WEST… CONFUSEF
They might assassinate Cupcake
Planning how he and his ANC are going Expropriate Property WITHOUT Compensation! These communists are never until the politicians are billionaires and the people are starving!
I hope South Africa get sanctioned for BEE. Why are ordinary white South African citizens being punished for something that the White South African Government did 30+years ago?!
Is he stupid or just delusional. Trump is going to wipe the floor with him. His smarmy demeanor wonโt fool Donald.
Ramaphosa forgot to take Mr Musk the senior as part of delegation
Two of our relatives and four of my classmates were killed in South Africa. One said before he died that he even had a store but raided by SA teenagers and Eliminated him and his store was vandalized and till today nobody was held accountable. Some certain area in South Africa is anti foreigner and some area are ok. There supposed to be general law protect everyone in Africa including responsible police force. Some certain areas are like Zimbabwe during Mugabe Era.
South Africa need to.implement laws to protect everyone regardless of their colours or tride or beliefs.
Yohhh
This Ramaphosa must be the stupidest person in Africa. He e is just sitting there getting bullied with lies and threats Infront of the world. What a humiliation.
What meeting …… What is the point we need like traore ….no time for begggingg or negotiation
It's sad how the pale lie about us while running the economy and exploiting us. Musk must never be allowed to run his companies here. Ramaphosa was set up. Why did he not mention Afrikaners throwing African women into pig pens after unaliving them? Colonialism and apartheid is alive.
Cyril and his cohorts caused the economic collapse with BEE.
Then after the collapse they adopted Julius Malema's land expropriation policy to remain relevant.
He is a coward through and through.
Disgusting. Lies, sugarcoating. What about your destructive race based laws?
Ramaphosa Admin. Has become an aleged liar by way of a video of killed (SA) white people (genocide) buried. And allowing land seizure not land buying.
Yes yes investment for who's pocket
No difference than your sentence to life in prison or you have been sentence to death USA has constitutional courts system to hide it's genocide *the court in Africa number 1 job is to find sovereign ways to keep people free *
Mandela had been raped in prison by white prison guards on Robben Island yet talk about mandela like he wasn't a victim*
The Truth Is AGOA not necessary, The Business Venture Of All Lower 48 Nations Has One Representative Which Is South Africa To Realize Real True Genocide Walk The Prison System Of United States of America ! Their You Will Find Apartheid, Genocide and Marixism most of all I.N.K
Well this aged like fresh milk on a sunny day ….
Trump doesn't know our constitution and also our freedom charter. He's fully aware tht our land is totally not in our hands.
did White southafrican treat Black South Africans fairly ? or is he musk having selective amnesia
The Right Honourable President should have offered him an A380 Airbus Jet when given the queue. https://youtu.be/e34RNgLdzCY?si=qJqXZ56vXh1usKJI
The ANC doesn't have the brains, the balls and the power to arrest and stop Julius Malema.
Over the years his ramblings of racial hatred served the ANC's interest. They let it go on so long that eventually he amassed so much power even they couldn't control him and too much power for them to do anything about his criminal behaviour. Today Julius Malema is untouchable.
Imagine any attempt to arrest him. His racist and communist indoctrinated supporters would bring South Africa into an anarchy of unrest that would possibly lead to a full on civil war that will cost millions of lives.
Julius Malema is the monster that the ANC themselves created and allowed both him and his hatred to flourish.
The South African President is a coward and a disgrace.
I see Pinocchio has arrived at the White Houseโdragging along turncoat and traitor of note, Steenhuizen.
Mr Steenhuisen how can you protect Agriculture when you introduced BEE for farmers? It makes no sense
SA's President recent visit to Trump signifies how Africa behaves like frightened child of the dark that sees the light. Burkina Faso has show the light and becomes a model on how to to define its destiny. Can't the rest of Africa see this and stand on its own? What is wrong with the old Africa leaders? After they make laude noise for long, they still crawl back to the feet of the West and EU.
