# South Africa’s G20 Sous-Sherpa ambassador, Xolisa Mabhongo, says government will not be travelling to the US to hand over the G20 Presidency. Traditionally, the country that will assume the presidency takes over the reins after the G20 Leaders’ Summit. However, the US will not be sending a delegation to the summit in Johannesburg this weekend. Mabhongo told the Sunday Times that the US will have to come to South Africa or host the next meeting of heads of state without an official handover.
