We view South Africa as one of our closest strategic partners in the developing world and in the African continent.

In May 1961, South Africa was to be declared a Nationalist Republic. There was a white referendum, but no African was consulted.

On Saturday, I was a surgeon in South Africa, very little known. On Monday, I was world renowned.

We all belong to South Africa, and South Africa belongs to us all.

In South Africa, we speak English and sometimes Afrikaans, sometimes Zulu, sometimes Xhosa.

We believe that the world, too, can destroy apartheid, firstly by striking at the economy of South Africa.
