ai generated text

The recent South African election has led to unprecedented developments, as the African National Congress (ANC) and its traditional rival, the Democratic Alliance (DA), have formed a coalition government. This marks the country's first-ever coalition government. The agreement was signed on Friday, just hours before the newly elected parliament was set to meet to form the new government.

    2. We will be supporting President Cyril Ramaphosa in his election for the president of the republic of South Africa.
    3. We agreed to outline a modality of how you get through today and some signals and signposts of the future. It is about some broad principles and important provisions; at the end of the day, this will not just depend on goodwill. It will depend on trust between the parties.
    4. It is difficult to overstate just how significant this moment is for the Democratic Alliance.
