President Cyril Ramaphosa has called for a shared vision and strategy between South Africa and Lesotho to revive the economy in the aftermath of COVID-19.
"Clearly, COVID-19 is having quite a negative impact on many economies around the world and we are also going to be adversely affected, both Lesotho and South Africa."
President Ramaphosa and Lesotho's Prime Minister Moeketsi Majoro were addressing the media at Mahlamba Ndlopfu Presidential Guesthouse in Tshwane on Friday.
"This visit marks a very important milestone - the beginning of improving and deepening relations between South Africa and Lesotho at all levels that touch on the movement between South Africa and Lesotho and how we should find ways to support each other's economy, particularly in relation to post COVID-19," President Ramaphosa told the media.
"We're also delighted to hear that stability has returned to Lesotho and that there's a renewed commitment to embark on the reforms that we, as South Africa, have been a facilitator in," the President said.
