US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer and South African Trade Minister Parks Tau are expected to meet on Thursday in a bid to resolve an impasse over tariffs, people with knowledge of the matter said.
The parties will meet while a South African delegation visits New York to attend the United Nations General Assembly, said the people, who asked not to be identified as the information is private. Relations between the two countries have deteriorated since President Donald Trump’s inauguration in January, with the American leader falsely accusing the nation of conducting a genocide against White people.
