South African President Ramaphosa Fails to Meet Trump at G7 in Canada


South African President Cyril Ramaphosa traveled to Kananaskis, Alberta, Canada, for the G7 Summit, in the hopes of meeting President Donald Trump, but failed to do so before Trump returned to the United States.

As Breitbart News reported, Trump left the G7 Summit after the first day, returning to the White House to deal with the ongoing war in the Middle East between Israel and Iran.

Ramaphosa had apparently boasted that he would meet Trump at the summit for the second time in as many months — but Trump left before he could.

The South African president’s office tried to put a brave face on the snub, saying that there had never been a “formal” meeting planned, according to News24.com:
