Thanks To Yulia S. Nesterova sharing this post via Global Political Insight October 27, 2014 | gpinsight | 0 Comments David Cameron snubs South Africa after Russia trade deal South African President Jacob Zuma has, late Friday (October 24th) night, cancelled a trip to the UK because Prime Minister David Cameron refused South Africa a courtesy call commonly afforded to visiting heads of state. Zuma was supposed to have been in the UK from Saturday to Wednesday and scheduled to attend the 3rd Annual InnovaBRICS conference hosted by international business leaders interested in furthering their investment ties with the strategic BRICS group of developing nations. On Thursday (23rd) the South African Presidency announced that President Zuma would deliver a keynote address at the conference “outlining South Africa’s role in BRICS and on the African continent in light of South Africa’s National Development Plan and Vision 2063”. He would have been joined on the podium by Steve Almond (Chairman of Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu); Sir John Pierce (Standard Chartered Chairman); David Landsman (Tata Executive Director) and Gerard Lyons (Chief Economic Advisor to the Mayor of London).
