South Africa Seeks Delay of Russia-China War Games During G-20

South Africa has requested a delay in the joint military exercises with Russia and China, which were scheduled to take place in November. The exercises, known as the Mosi II naval drills, were set to take place off the coast of South Africa during the G-20 summit. The South African defense department cited the need to avoid distractions and focus on hosting the international event as the reason for the request. The decision comes amid growing concerns over South Africa's neutral stance on the Russia-Ukraine conflict, which has drawn criticism from Western nations. The postponement of the exercises is seen as a bid by South Africa to balance its relationships with various global powers and maintain its position as a neutral player in the geopolitical landscape.
