G7 Summit
Experts say it’s no accident South Africa has been asked to join them. “South Korea, Japan, they’re also joining…I think Prime Minister Johnson see these countries as like-minded and really wants to get them on board with the agenda being promoted, it can’t just be the G7 countries, it needs to expand further and South Africa represents an anchor in Africa in many ways and so I think getting these countries on board will really help push forward the agenda that they’re trying to set,” says the Director-General at the Royal United Services Institute, Karin Von Hippel.
