We want a nation that is at peace with the world.   We continue through our international relations to advance the well-being of the South African people as we seek to advance the well-being of humanity.   We will work to strengthen our trade relations around the world and to leverage our strong and diverse global alliances to make our economy more resilient.   The key pillars of our foreign policy remain the promotion of human rights, peace and friendship and the strengthening of fair trade and investment ties with other countries.   These are the principles that guide our Presidency of the #G20 this year.   We have chosen the theme of solidarity, equality and sustainable development to underscore the need for cooperation and partnership among the countries of the world.   For the first time in its history, the G20 is being hosted on the African continent following the admission of the African Union as a member of the G20.   It is an opportunity to place the needs of Africa and the rest of the Global South more firmly on the international development agenda.   Our G20 Presidency is a valuable opportunity for South Africa to advance efforts towards greater global economic growth and sustainable development. #SONA2025 #AWorkingNation #G20SouthAfrica #BetterAfricaBetterWorld
