President Cyril Ramaphosa has defended the recent African leaders peace initiative to bring an end to the conflict between Ukraine and Russia, saying it was necessary because the continent was feeling the devastating consequences of the war.
“We did this because this continent of ours knows the devastating consequences of war which are not limited to hunger, therefore advocating for peace is a matter that came fairly easy to us, that we should go and put forward 10 key elements of what could constitute a resolution.
Ramaphosa and other African heads of state, including Egypt's Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly, Senegal's President Macky Sall, the Comoros' President Azali Assoumani and Zambia's President Hakainde Hichilema, visited the two countries in June in a bid to broker peace in the conflict. He said it was important for the dialogue to recommit to peace and stability as well as to support the role of a strengthened and reformed UN and to reiterate respect for international law.
