The US has warned Pretoria not to make a G20 declaration without its presence at the G20 Leaders’ Summit.
The US has agreed its chargé d’affaires in Pretoria will attend the declaration handover ceremony as a formality.
But South African presidential spokseperson Vincent Magwenya said on X that President Cyril Ramaphosa will not hand over the G20 Presidency to a chargé d’affaires after the US reiterated that it would not attend any G20 discussions this weekend.
Africa’s first G20 Summit will include representatives of 42 countries.
With us here in the studio is Doctor Sithembile Mbete, Executive Director of the Public Affairs Research Institute.

Meanwhile back at home.we have the highest unemployment and GBV in the world. Corrupt officials etc. And SABC wanna show how great we are under G20 and worried about ANC and trump
In the mean time our country are burning with corruption, state capture,, the mafias taking over this country,, so many that they've destroyed,, cupcake must face reality in this country 🥺🥺
Stop talking about the US you are making this whole conference about them
I believe this bully has been given a snotklap – well done to smart and intelligent diplomacy – something that is sorely missing in Washington.
Ramaphosa is not telling the truth
Know ramaphosa he will handover. .. he like being a puppet
A flip flopper who's a clown is giving the world a circus show for free😂😂😂
I thought our government doesn't care about the US,but everything on the news is about the US,atleast the US is getting great airtime sponsored by the majority in SA😊
Listening to SABC, enca and newsroom Africa is like Gazans listening to Al Jazeera about how great Hamas terrorists are and here in SA it's always about how wonderful ANC is
What a waste of time and disgusting journalism
Dr Mbethe is so informed and well spoken …I love her.
We don't need the US trump is racist the African continent don't need them South Africans must just watch out for the DA and Afriforum they in direct contact with the US
Trump talking about South Africa doing white genocide the US and Israel is doing genocide Netanyahu and his ministers are more dangerous than Hitler
We don't have enough schools,toilets,water,electricity,hospitals and our police,government and military are corrupt,trains are cut up for scrap,roads are falling apart,crime is sky high,borders are wide open,people still live in shacks and 36% of us are jobless,but atleast we have a G20,now thats a forward thinking progressive government for you.
Half the leaders aren't even coming. No leaders of China, the USA, Argentina, Russia, Mexico, or Nigeria will be attending.
The world no longer fooled by Israel and the US lies trump and Netanyahu don't respect international law
You going to see your as"%$. Think you so clever but hey cancer, alcoholism etc can be cured, dumbness unfortunately not. Shame
Should we care? TRUMP IS A PEADHOPHILE & AMERICA IS BRCOMING LIKE NETFLIX HORROR MOVIE. DISGUSTING & WITHOUT SHAME!!!
Global south = dictactors and criminals
When you proudly state… "SA is the most unequal country in the world"… then please also state which poverty, hunger stricken, war ravaged, genocidal countries are more equal than SA? There are 54 countries in Africa… most are poverty and hunger stricken, many are war ravaged and some have had recorded genocides. ALSO state what inequality exists and compared to who… NOTE, there are twice as many middle-class black people than there are white middle-class people. There are more black millionaires than white millionaires. There are more employed blacks than whites. The white population IS THE ONLY RACIAL GROUP THAT IS SHRINKING… all other groups, especially blacks are growing rapidly. THEN state… the ANC have been in power for over 3 decades… and unemployment and poverty has grown, not reduced!
These are all distractions being enabled by SABC and other state captured media networks.
Our Cyril is a 🤡
Talk Talk Talk that's all what you do
Open your eyes and see the truth
"1st of all your saying invest in people" you never invest in people why now? Lets me guess the only black economy will work on G20 and the B20 what about white colords and India's and other raise? Your taking South Africa money to invest in this global busniss economy why not fix all your builds and road and such that needs to be fix and house that's over growing with weeds and trees what about those house where people can use it? Ther's so much more what about health let's talk about health. We go to government hospitals or clinic then they ask for money that we need to pay on top of that for money which is a government hospitals and clinic which should be free to the state. Sorry black school and such is free but what about other colors other colors is not free we pay school fees? Talk about right's and many more things about South Africa needs and more? I'm over this government and the politics you can go get scored because South Africa isn't gonna get better for anyone. I don't care what colour you are this isn't gonna get better for anyone. All we need to do is work pay bils and carrying on because no government or President or law or even police won't listen to us it's so unfair to South Africa's who lives here. I'm not voting for any politics why must I they never help with anything. That's a fact.
Whatever US decides with their state is non of our, this is no America, so let the summit continue as planned and minimize talking about them.
🇫🇷🇬🇧☺☺
Lucky they did not send the toilet attendant to get the baton….that would have been more appropriate!…. South Africa is a sh*thouse!…
Putting your foot down!!!.. into the poorhouse for thousands of South Africans…
G20 is a waste of time, it's rich gov making plans to get the population down, so many years and it had no effects to improve our lives. In case everything is worse, more diseases illnesses and bad economy and bad stuff. It's pointless!
Help me if I'm wrong, but if you take on debt, you have a responsibility of paying it back, not so? At the time when the loans were awarded to you, the understanding was clearly that it will be paid back, at an agreed interest? How can you now demand not to pay it back?
Don Ramapolachi is pushing his luck and his ego is dogpoo. His a liar, a failed leader and he thinks he can bully USA 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Mzansi Did It , fair and square
Stop talking about USA!!!! And focus more about South Africa and countries that are coming!!!!!!!!!!
Let available leaders engage in all decisions and the unavailable watch it on TV. 😂
this is an ANC propaganda SABC to fool the monkeys
Ramaphosa should hand over to empty chair. We are watching…
This G20 will jus b another talk show.
But it will be mostly be the protection on the initial G7 (global west) interest, hence the rich developed countries.
Take for instance Trumps trade tariffs towards the global South countries incl. SA
LOOK LOOK MI LADY PLEASE ANC ARE A MMMMM MOVE ON
The anc and its racist supporters say theyre not bothered about President Trump or what he says but judging on the comments on here…these anc fools are panicking and seriously stressed out.
No real tension xi and putin aren't coming either
Play with fire get burned.
Looks like the whole…we wont be bullied and we dont care about the usa was yet another lie……Its all over the news and these anc comrades are stressing on every single program. Mission accomplished 🤣
There is not tension. Trump is behaving like a child. When we were small the , the one who get more pocket money likes to decide what games we should play, than we all decide, keep you money we will play without you…he should just act his age and the world will heal…
