South Africa Responds With Humor After U.S. Excludes It From 2025 G20 Activities
South Africa has reacted with dry humor after the U.S. confirmed that Pretoria will not be invited to participate in any G20 activities during Washington’s 2025 presidency. The decision, announced by Secretary of State Marco Rubio, solidifies South Africa’s full exclusion despite being a founding G20 member. Presidential spokesperson Vincent Magwenya jokingly said the country would “take a commercial break” until the U.K. assumes the presidency next year. The move comes amid worsening U.S.–South Africa relations under President Donald Trump, who has repeatedly criticized the country’s policies and boycotted the 2024 G20 summit in Johannesburg.
