South Africa Probes Iran's Presence in BRICS Wargames Amid US Backlash | Firstpost Africa | N18G

South Africa is navigating a treacherous diplomatic tightrope as it hosts the "Will for Peace 2026" naval exercise. While the drills involve BRICS allies Russia and China, the participation of Iran has ignited a firestorm in Washington. Pretoria, reportedly, asked Tehran to scale back its role from an active participant to a mere observer to avoid further irking Trump. The stakes for President Ramaphosa are economic and existential. Donald Trump has already imposed a 30% tariff on South African goods and recently threatened a 25% tariff on any nation doing business with Iran. Furthermore, South Africa is seeking to secure the renewal of AGOA, which provides vital duty-free access to US markets. --- South Africa | BRICS | Wargames | Iran | US | Pretoria | Trump Tariff Threats | AGOA Trade Stakes | Firstpost Africa | Alyson Le Grange | Africa | Global South | Geopolitics | Military Coup | Environment | Climate Change | Firstpost | News Live | World News | Latest News | Global News | International News | News | Trending News #southafrica #brics #iran #navaldrills #usbacklash #trumptariffs #agoa #firstpostafrica #africa #alysonlegrange #globalsouth #militarycoup #firstpost #newslive #worldnews #latestnews #globalnews #news #internationalnews #trendingnews Firstpost is an Indian news and media website.
