U.S. President Donald Trump said last night that South Africa should not be in the Group of 20 major economies anymore – repeating that he will not attend a leaders summit there later this month during the African country’s rotating presidency of the group.
Vice President JD Vance is scheduled to attend the G20 leaders meeting, which is scheduled for Nov. 22-23 in Soweto.
SABC News Specialist Correspondent, Sophie Mokoena joins us now to discuss the latest developments.

He does not deserve to be a president of at all. He is so ignorant!😂
Is he not supposed to attend for handover???
I’m only 8 seconds in. I had to pause and add my comment quickly. He is right about that though. Just as South Africa should not be a member of these stupid unions & association:
1.) UN
2.) AU
3.) SADC
4.) ICC
5.) ICJ
and other stupid unions (of nothing) and associations.
President Trump is in luck! Please let him know that we will withdraw from that G20 thing and these useless clown unions & associations as soon as we takeover from these zikrelemnqa’s of mine. So he can now relax. We will withdraw from that AGOA thing also (please convey my gratitude to him / America for their generosity, lest we get accused for not saying “thank you”. Please let President Trump know that canceling USAID to South Africa was the right thing to do too. As for me, I’m watching (& will continue to sadly watch) the spectacular collapse of America right from the comfort of my own home.
I will come back here soon to watch / listen to the rest of this video clip. Thanks for the news.
Correct. We shouldn't be there. As long as there are race laws we shouldn't be part of anything.
Is Trump still talking nobody cares
Trump wena you Sick just Possessed with SA periot
Trump is desperate to help whites get a Western Cape independence, that what this is all about
Look what happening in Gaza Mr. President?
We don't care. We will be just fine. Go away Trump.
Look at USA what's going on no world cup bcos there's lot of nonsense happening under his watch while he is busy taking a nap .He is supp..to be at home
I am so tired with this Trump issue worldwide – its time RSA must move forward and get rid of Agoa – even Ibrahim Traore has come of age. Note that charity begins at home , and there is so much to do in Africa….period…( RSA must learn to stand up now , do not beg , as Dr Bolsen has been sayig all along – or maybe we got a challenge at the leadership position )
Sanction the sanctioners!
The G20 group must be thrilled he's not coming!
This old man needs to do his research first before going public. What a disgrace.
Why is south Africa so worried about Donald Trump if he doesn't want to attend so what receive the rest of the members and make it a success without him
Is Sophie Mokoena a correspondent? I thought she was an editor
It's about time SA to Stand Firm
Who cares if you not come , surely you will not be missed
I hope all South Africans…all cultures and groups join together and show these world leaders exactly whats going on in SA. Its your right to protest, demand change and demand a better standard of living….a standard that the anc leaders and government are enjoying so so much
Not in gs any more what does that mean.
Donald Trump shouldn't even be president of his hotels let alone a country
Trump is 100% correct. How companies have closed they're doors. Corruption has become part and parcel of this current regime. Trillions stolen while no one is behind bars. Shame on the anc and they're cadres
