South Africa urges cooperation at G20 meeting amid tensions over Ukraine
Al JazeeraForeign ministers from the G20 top economies have gathered in South Africa’s Johannesburg, amid geopolitical rifts, tensions over the Ukraine war and with the top US diplomat a notable absentee. President Cyril Ramaphosa told G20 foreign ministers that multilateralism and international law were key to solving world crises, while sounding alarm about the group’s deepening divisions. “Yet there is a lack of consensus among major powers, including in the G20, on how to respond to these issues of global significance.” The strife was threatening “an already fragile global coexistence”, Ramaphosa said. US President Donald Trump then cut aid to South Africa amid a dispute with the nation over its efforts to redress historical racial injustices in land ownership, and its genocide case against US ally Israel at the International Court of Justice.
