Since then, we have mourned the passing of nearly 50 000 of our fellow South Africans as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. The damage caused by Covid-19 runs deep and we share in the collective pain of many South Africans who have lost their jobs.

The countryâs next steps on foreign policy will be crucial for its role in multilateral institutions.
In December 2020, South Africa ended its two-year term as an elected member on the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) â the countryâs third such term. Serving on the worldâs primary security institution gave South Africa experience to guide future multilateral engagements.
Just a few years ago, the countryâs regional and global influence on international affairs waned somewhat. Going forward, a stagnant foreign policy that mirrors this trend should be avoided. South Africa must use the positive momentum from its recent UNSC term to maintain an Africa-centred strategy that champions collective peace and security.
