"South Africa's Arms Controversy: Implications for International Relations"
A delegation of African heads of state will visit Russia and Ukraine to discuss a potential peace plan for the conflict in Ukraine. The mediation effort includes Senegal, Uganda, Egypt, the Republic of the Congo, Zambia, and South Africa. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres and the African Union have welcomed the initiative, while the US and Britain have expressed cautious support. South African President Cyril Ramaphosa said the conflict had been "devastating," and African countries suffered "a great deal" from it.
