"The current geopolitical climate, including the United States and Israel’s war on Iran and Iran’s retaliation, is already sending shockwaves through our societies. Beyond the immediate impact of rising global oil prices, a spike in fertiliser costs is set to drive food prices up and further compromise food security across many of our countries. As a community, we will not emerge unscathed from this. Our public finances are likely to come under even greater strain, and it is our people who will bear the cost." @DIRCO_ZA Minister Hon @RonaldLamola opening the SADC Council of Ministers Meeting....!!
