 Embassy of Ukraine to South Africa is preparing for Ukrainian Trade Mission in full swing. The mission would be chaired by Taras Kachka, Trade Representative of Ukraine and is scheduled to take place in mid of April.

Ambassador of Ukraine to South Africa Liubov Abravitova made an announcement in this connection during the panel discussion called “New Partnership in Times of Pandemic”. The discussion was organized by the Ukrainian Prism Foreign Policy Council on April 2. The Ambassador said that South Africa is a G20 nation and also the second largest economy in Africa. But it still exists as a rather “blind spot” in Ukraine’s foreign policy. To elaborate on this, till date no high-level visit has taken place by Ukraine to South Africa, the last visit of the Ukrainian foreign minister being held in 2001.

Sectoral meetings were held with the participation of business representatives of both countries, contacts of various intergovernmental commissions were established and updated.
