US President Joe Biden will discuss efforts to end the war in Ukraine with President Cyril Ramaphosa, who has avoided condemning Russia, when the two leaders meet at the White House on Friday, according to a US official.

"The goal is to have a conversation about the conflict in Ukraine: how we got there, and how we get out of it, and in hearing from President Ramaphosa about his thoughts on the best way forward, sharing ours on how to manage the conflict and reach a conclusion," said the senior Biden administration official.

Biden, who has led an international coalition to punish Russian President Vladimir Putin for the near-seven month war in Ukraine, wants SA's help in efforts that include forcing Moscow to sell its oil at below market rates. The two leaders are also expected to discuss trade, climate and energy as Biden ramps up engagements with African countries and casts a wary eye on investments and diplomacy by rivals Russia and China on the continent.

Ramaphosa has resisted calls to directly condemn Russia for the war, instead opposing the use of force generically. In March, he blamed NATO's eastward expansion for regional instability and said the conflict should be solved through UN-mediated negotiations rather than Western-led sanctions that hurt"bystander countries".

'... who has avoided condemning Russia...' is misleading. CyrilRamaphosa is not condemning Russia even though he disapproves of war. SA is not taking sides in a war caused by USA and its NATO allies. The end. We are not neutral. We are non-aligned.

Cyril Ramaphosa is the only BRICS President invited to attend Elizabeth's funeral ask yourself why.

Cyril Ramaphosa was there as an individual not as the president of South Africa. Actually, South Africans have nothing to do with America. South Africans stand with Russia.

Tell him to end war of inequality, unemployment, crime, kidnapping and high cost of living in his country first before a tsena taba txa batho

RamaVirus le taba txa batho a palla ke txa gage mo South Africa. O Tena gampe o we wa dinko

Before he starts interfering in other countries business, he needs to fix the mess his causing in his own country

We are dead 🔥 dead I say, I'm going to Japan

What would be nice if Putin says to Cyril, I will give you petroleum cheap. Like to see if he takes it or sell the country out?

Cyril will discuss what ? 🤣🤣 Rather they talk about the weather - like his country - its also one of the many things Cyril can’t control

Ao what is Cyril going to do about that?

Cyril Ramaphosa went there on his capacity, not representing South Africa. As South Africans we stand with Russia.

We know he doesn't care about the war, since they making money out of it. They are there to discuss the selling of South Africa to the USA.

Leaders? 😂

Cris Hani is roaring in his grave

Lenja iyosidayisa le

Sellout

Eyy to end what 🤔🤔🤔yooh ayy bo ramaphosa barat dilo maan 🙄🙄

Focus on your own country

Uyaphi lona... we are part of BRICS, we don't have to be involved in this

As South Africans, hand's up to Cyril Phala Phala farm top dwag !! For solving wars, kusa Khalwa ngaye ne softy softy spot to be a leader

I was scammed through Bitcoin couple of months ago, I started hating Bitcoin until I was introduced to Allison_Grillo, and I gave Bitcoin trading another try, I successfully withdrew $35,000 after two weeks of trading, am so grateful Allison_Grillo thank you

End wat?

Kodwa uSilili uyasidayisa, sekuzomele avume yonk'into eshiwo ngulo Bra Joe

mfa_russia please note that I as a South African dont support this minority of our people stand with you

As a mother of two kids I have battled alot with my financial state to the point of begging from friends just to survive, until I started Bitcoin trading with the help of Allison_Grillo I made a successful withdrawal of R 200,000 with the help of Allison_Grillo.

the wenzenists must be dying of envy..

🤣🤣🤣🤣 Happy nap time to cupcake..

Two countries have benefitted in political leverage from the Ukraine war. India & RSA, the two are the gates & mediators between the east & the west. Since they are both members of BRICS & India SCO.. We must use this opportunity fully to leverage economic gains

I really appreciate allison_grillo effort for turning my little investment of R8000 i got a big smile on my face after withdrawing R80,000 as my profit i just want to make everyone know of allison_grillo and how she has helped me through tough times

Oh Cyril, please be wise! Nothing the Biden administration has done has bettered the US.
