Trump explained the reason for his unwillingness to attend the G20 summit in South Africa.

US President Donald Trump does not plan to take part in the upcoming G20 summit in South Africa, where he intends to send any of his representatives due to personal problems with the country. He stated this on July 29.

"No, I think I'll probably send someone else there, because I have a lot of problems with South Africa," he told reporters aboard his presidential liner.

According to Trump, he would like to visit this state, but will not do so because a large number of people are allegedly dying because of the current government in South Africa.
