On Friday, Chinese President Xi Jinping announced he would attend the 2023 BRICS summit in Johannesburg, South Africa. The summit begins on Tuesday. This marks yet another move by Beijing towards strengthening its relations with Africa.
Xi’s visit comes at an unstable time in South Africa. The country has been struck by a series of political and economic crises. Notably, the South African parliament voted last month to prevent Russian President Vladimir Putin from visiting the country for the summit, in accordance with the International Criminal Court’s ruling against him.
Still, Xi’s visit to South Africa comes amid a significant economic downturn. Massive riots have sent the country into a downward spiral, furthering the already deeply divided political fissures developing in Pretoria. While Ramaphosa’s African National Congress still maintains a monopoly on governance in South Africa, the country’s poor state has led to the rise of both the pro-western Democratic Alliance and the aforementioned EFF, or Economic Freedom Fighters.
