South African Coal Sales to Israel: President Can't Influence Trade Via Executive Orders In the domain of trade, Pretoria's potential response to reported Israeli atrocities is limited due to the fact that some of SA-Israeli trade is "within business-to-business sort of arrangements," South Africa's presidential spokesperson said in response to a question by Sputnik Africa.Cyril Ramaphosa "can't just wake up in the morning and decide to reach an executive order that will impact companies and impact their trade. So, one will have to then look at what the legal framework says. There has been a bit of a debate about the issue just amongst ourselves in the office in terms of what the legal options are," Vincent Magwenya said.Subscribe to @sputnik_africa Sputnik Africa | X
