Ghana postponed President Cyril Ramaphosa’s planned August state visit due to the xenophobic anti-foreigner climate in South Africa, with Accra citing the current tensions. Ghana has repatriated over 900 of its citizens, and other African nations are likewise evacuating nationals. South Africa says it remains committed to cooperation and will work through diplomatic channels to agree a mutually convenient date for a future visit, amid ongoing disputes over deaths and residency documentation in the xenophobia row.
