The Group
of 20
nations will make a
joint declaration at the end of their summit in Johannesburg this weekend
despite warnings against that from the United States, South Africa's president
said Thursday.
He said
the summit host country will “not be bullied” by pressure from the Trump
administration to water down any final decisions.
South
African President Cyril Ramaphosa told reporters that the first G20 summit in
Africa
was moving forward
without the U.S., which is boycotting the two-day meeting of world leaders that
opens Saturday over Trump's claims that Ramaphosa's government is violently
persecuting a white minority.
A South
African G20 ambassador said this week that the U.S. had sent diplomatic
communication to South Africa advising that that “there should be no
declaration adopted” at the summit because the U.S. was not there and therefore
there would be no consensus.
Instead,
the U.S. wants a toned-down statement from South Africa only to cap the summit,
which is a culmination of more than 120 meetings that Africa's most advanced
economy has hosted since it took over the G20's rotating presidency for this
year.
“We
will have a declaration,” Ramaphosa told reporters Thursday, pushing back
against the U.S. “The talks are going extremely well. I'm confident we are
moving towards a declaration, and they are now just dotting the i's and
crossing the t's.”
"Without
the United States, the whole process of the G20 is moving forward. We will not
be bullied. We will not agree to be bullied.”
Trump
has repeatedly targeted South Africa for criticism since he returned to office.
He held a tense meeting with Ramaphosa at the White House in May, when he
confronted South Africa's leader with baseless claims of widespread violence
against Afrikaners in South Africa.
The
U.S. president has repeated his claims in the leadup to the G20 that
Ramaphosa's Black-led government is pursuing racist anti-white policies against
the Afrikaner white minority.
Trump's
allegations have been widely rejected, but the U.S. president cited them when
he said the U.S. government would boycott the summit in South Africa's biggest
city.
The
U.S. will take over the rotating presidency of the G20 from South Africa and
Ramaphosa has previously said he will have to pass it to Trump's “empty chair”
in Johannesburg, though he said he would talk to Trump after the summit.
The G20
is a bloc made up of 19 nations, including the richest but also the top
developing economies. The European Union and the African Union are also
members.
South
Africa, which is the first African nation to hold the rotating presidency, is
hoping to use its summit to make progress on issues especially affecting poor
countries. That includes mitigating the impact of climate change and
weather-related disasters, easing debt burdens for developing countries and
confronting global wealth inequality.
The
U.S. has previously derided South Africa's priorities for the group, with U.S.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio skipping a G20 foreign ministers meeting in
February and dismissing South Africa's priorities as being about diversity,
equity and inclusion and climate change.
Rubio
said he would not waste U.S. taxpayer money on that agenda.
Other
leaders are also skipping the G20 summit, including China's Xi Jinping,
Russia's Vladimir Putin and Argentina's Javier Milei, but they have sent
delegations to represent them.
“The
only country that is not in the room is the United States and, of course, is
their choice not to be in the room,” Xolisa Mabhongo, a South African
ambassador to the G20, told national broadcaster SABC this week.
