The Embassy of Ukraine in the Republic of South Africa is actively preparing for the Ukrainian Trade Mission chaired by Trade Representative of Ukraine Taras Kachka which will take place in mid-April.
Ambassador of Ukraine to South Africa Liubov Abravitova made a corresponding announcement during the panel discussion entitled New Partnership in Times of Pandemic organized by the Ukrainian Prism Foreign Policy Council on April 2, an Ukrinform correspondent reported.
As the diplomat noted, South Africa is a member of G20 and the second largest economy on the African continent, while the country remains a blind spot in Ukraine s foreign policy. In particular, no high-level visit to South Africa had taken place so far, and the last visit of the foreign minister had been made in 2001.
