SA Deputy President confirms talks between President, DA leader amid GNU budget deadlock

Date: Apr 8, 2025

South Africa's (SA) Deputy President, Paul Mashatile, has disclosed details of high-level discussions between Democratic Alliance (DA) leader and Minister of Agriculture, John Steenhuisen, and President Cyril Ramaphosa, amid a budget vote deadlock.

The DA’s refusal to support the Government of National Unity’s (GNU) proposed budget citing strong opposition to a value added tax increase has sparked fresh concerns about the stability of the GNU.

The African National Congress held a crucial meeting on Monday to assess the future of the unity government.
