💨 Abstract

South African President Cyril Ramaphosa will visit Washington to discuss business opportunities for Elon Musk's companies with President Donald Trump, aiming to mend strained relations. Trump has criticized South Africa's land reform policy and supported a genocide case against Israel, leading to funding cuts. South Africa plans to propose favourable tariffs for Tesla in exchange for EV charging stations and discuss licensing for Starlink. Additionally, South Africa seeks to secure trade benefits for its farmers, currently at risk under Trump's tariff regime.
