S. Africa barred from attending G7 summit in France
The G7, made up of France, the US, the UK, Germany, Japan, Italy, and Canada, sometimes invites non-member countries to participate in selected sessions. South Africa, considered the continent’s most industrialized economy, attended the group’s outreach summit in Canada last June, where Ramaphosa participated as a guest.
Pretoria said it had been initially invited to the France-hosted meeting from June 15 to 17. On Thursday, presidential spokesperson Vincent Magwenya told AFP that “the Americans threatened to boycott the G7 if South Africa was invited.”
