South Africa has blocked Ghana's attempt to bring xenophobic violence to the agenda of the African Union's Mid-Year Coordination Meeting, according to reports. The decision shifts the focus to broader migration challenges across the continent. The African Union meeting, held in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, saw South Africa resist Ghana's proposal, opting instead to address migration issues more generally. This move highlights the complex dynamics between African nations on matters of security and social cohesion. The decision comes amid ongoing tensions related to xenophobia in South Africa, which has sparked international concern. The African Union's response underscores the difficulty of addressing such sensitive issues across diverse member states. The outcome may influence future discussions on migration and xenophobia in the region. (Daily Maverick)
