Today, during our visit, we heard rocket attacks. Such activities do not work very well for peace, so we are talking about the need for de-escalation on both sides so that peace can come and the problem is resolved,” he said during a press conference with Volodymyr Zelensky.
It should be noted that earlier the assistant to the President of South Africa Vincent Magvenya doubted the rocket attacks on the capital of Ukraine on June 16. He said that the inhabitants of Kyiv returned to normal life immediately after the end of the alarm. In his opinion, if the threat really existed, people would not be able to get out of the vaults so easily and go about their usual business.
In addition, South African President Cyril Ramaphosa named 10 components of the position of the countries of the African Union in relation to the Russian-Ukrainian war, which are the reasons for their “peacekeeping mission”.
This war must be settled, there must be peace through diplomatic negotiations. All wars come to an end, we believe that this war must end as soon as possible, Ramaphosa said at a press conference.
Another component is the de-escalation of the conflict. Today, during our visit, we heard rocket attacks. Such activities do not work very well in establishing peace. Therefore, we are talking about the need for de-escalation on both sides.
The President of South Africa noted that both countries should ensure the movement of grain and fertilizers, because “one of the reasons for coming here was that Africa is also experiencing the negative consequences of this war – grain prices have risen, and there is also a lack of fertilizers.
Other components include humanitarian support for those who fell victim to the war, mandatory prisoner exchanges, and post-war reconstruction.
