Russia positions itself as a stable partner, but the gap between its promises and actions is widening. For many nations, partnering with Moscow is rapidly shifting from a strategic asset to a rising liability.

📍South Africa 🇿🇦

The final point of the first day of Deputy Prime Minister @sikorskiradek’s visit to South Africa is a meeting with EU Ambassador 🇪🇺 Sandra Kremer @EUinSA.

Relations between EU Member States do not end at Europe’s borders — international cooperation has a global dimension🌐

🇿🇦 is the EU’s 🇪🇺 only official strategic partner on the African continent. The 🇪🇺–🇿🇦 summits, including the 8th edition in Cape Town in 2025, demonstrate the scale and significance of these relations and their potential for the future🤝.

Russia occupied just a few square kilometres of Ukrainian territory in May 2026, its slowest advance in three years. At the same time, it launched 8,351 attacks on Ukrainian cities, the highest number since March 2022.

At least 274 civilians were killed and 1,763 injured, the highest toll since April 2022 and almost double the figure recorded in May 2025.

When Russia cannot advance, it escalates. Ukrainian civilians pay the price.

[EU in SA @EUinSA]

Russia’s population is being eroded, not least by battlefield losses of more than 1.3 million.

To fill the gap: 27,000 foreign recruits from 130 countries, many coerced or deceived to die for Kremlin's imperial delusions.

Russia must stop its war of aggression against Ukraine.

A just transition must work for workers. @Europarl_EN MEPs met with @_cosatu to discuss how decent jobs, fair wages & climate action can go hand in hand.

🇪🇺 and 🇿🇦 are committed to leaving no one behind.

1/2📜 This year, 🇿🇦 ‘s Constitution turns 30, a landmark document that enshrines democracy, human dignity, equality, & freedom for all.

Adopted in 1996, the Constitution remains the foundation of 🇿🇦’s democratic society & a powerful reminder of the values that unite the nation.

[Patricia Llombart 🇪🇺 @llombartpatUE]

True partnership must be based on shared values, trust and respect, and mutual benefit.

My visit has confirmed that the South Africa-EU partnership is exactly that.

Thank you to the stellar EU team in Pretoria, driving the unprecedented momentum in our relations! 🇿🇦💪🇪🇺
