G20 Johannesburg Ends Without US Handover as Washington Boycotts Summit

The G20 summit in Johannesburg closed without the customary handover ceremony to the incoming US chair after the Trump administration boycotted the entire summit. South African President Ramaphosa refused to hand over to a junior US embassy official, calling it a breach of protocol. The US objected to the DEI-focused agenda and Trump's false claims about land confiscation from white South Africans.
