South Africa is considering the easiest solution to the problem of having Russian President Vladimir Putin potentially visiting the country.
South Africa is considering switching the venue of an upcoming summit of BRICS leaders to another country, according to people familiar with the matter, a move that would resolve its dilemma over whether to execute an international arrest warrant for Russian President Vladimir Putin.
“As far as we are aware, we have announced the summit venue as Gauteng, South Africa,” he said. “That is what we know as of today.” The geopolitical tensions have added to worries about the impact on South Africa’s economic outlook from daily blackouts and logistical constraints that are hampering exports, with the rand falling to successive record lows over the past month.
