The two heads of state spoke over a phone call on Friday to discuss the African Leaders' Peace Mission to Ukraine and Russia, and the upcoming BRICS summit was also on the agenda.
JOHANNESBURG - President Cyril Ramaphosa has remained mum on the outcome of talks to move the upcoming BRICS summit to China following a call with his counterpart Xi Jinping.
But the meeting of the five-member bloc was also on the agenda - further fueling speculation that South Africa could forfeit its hosting duties to solve the predicament of Russia's participation. Delegates from the bloc will use the occasion to discuss how the grouping of emerging markets will strengthen existing political, social and economic ties.
