The President of Southern Africa, Cyril Ramaphosa, stated on Thursday that he is striving for a deal with U.S. President Donald Trump on a wide range of issues. "We want to move forward and conclude the deal," Ramaphosa said at a conference organized by the American bank Goldman Sachs in Johannesburg. "We do not want to go backwards and clarify our position." "I sincerely wish to strengthen good relations," added Ramaphosa. Trump signed an order this month to terminate U.S. financial assistance to South Africa, indicating a disagreement with its approach to land reform and the problem of genocide against Israel in the International Court of Justice.
