South Africa's ANC Eyes Unity Government Amid Divisions
TL;DR Summary
South Africa's ANC, led by President Cyril Ramaphosa, is considering forming a "unity" government with all major parties to resolve a political deadlock after losing its parliamentary majority in recent elections. This approach, reminiscent of Nelson Mandela's post-apartheid government, aims to foster national unity and avoid economic uncertainty. However, internal divisions within the ANC and opposition from other parties present significant challenges to this plan. An agreement must be reached by June 16 for the new Parliament to elect a president.
