Ramaphosa Gains Domestically Despite Trump Showdown | JQJO

South African President Cyril Ramaphosa's Washington visit, aimed at improving US relations, was overshadowed by Donald Trump's unfounded claims of white genocide. Despite Trump's accusations, Ramaphosa remained composed. Back home, Ramaphosa faces domestic challenges including a fragile coalition government, economic stagnation, and high crime rates. However, his calm demeanor during the Trump meeting may boost his domestic approval ratings, strengthening his position and the coalition government. The incident may also weaken the opposition EFF and AfriForum.
