Ambassador Bozell: The Impact on US-South Africa Relations

About the Event

The Government of South Africa faces a complex set of domestic security challenges while, at the same time, having to navigate an increasingly turbulent and uncertain international political system. In an era of renewed major power competition, South Africa continues to strengthen its security partnerships with adversaries of the United States, which has often drawn the ire of the US Government. Now that US Ambassador Brent Bozell has arrived in South Africa, it will be interesting to see what is next for US South Africa relations.

The Foreign Policy Research Institute (FPRI) is presenting a panel of subject-matter experts who closely monitor US-South Africa relations. Moderated by Ambassador (ret), Charles Ray, chair of FPRI’s Africa Program, the panel will include Christopher Isike, Director of African Centre for the Study of the United States at University of Pretoria; David Monyae, Director of Centre for Africa-China Studies at the University of Johannesburg; Michael Walsh, President of Future Continuum LLC; and Bob Wekesa, Director of African Centre for the Study of the United States at the University of the Witwatersrand.
