💨 Abstract

Former U.S. President Donald Trump announced that South Africa would not be invited to the 2026 G20 summit in Miami, citing alleged human rights abuses against white farmers and diplomatic protocol issues. Trump also directed the cessation of all payments and subsidies to South Africa. President Cyril Ramaphosa responded by asserting South Africa's sovereignty and commitment to the G20, calling for multilateralism and equal participation.
