President undertakes Working Visit to Mozambique for SADC Meeting

President Cyril Ramaphosa is participating today, Monday 14 December 2020 in a one-day Southern African Development Community (SADC) Consultation Meeting being held in Maputo.

The meeting is a follow-up to the SADC Organ Troika Summit recently held in Gaborone, Botswana on 27 November 2020.

The Gaborone Summit noted with concern acts of terrorism in the region, particularly in Cabo Delgado province of the Republic of Mozambique, and expressed continued SADC solidarity with Mozambique.

The Gaborone Summit also directed the finalisation of a comprehensive regional response and programme of support to the Republic of Mozambique.

President Ramaphosa is due to return to South Africa later today.
