everyone says is that this is the anc of cyril ramaphosa.o through president cyril ramaphosa. there are obviously questions about whether this result, this terrible result we are expecting for the anc, is an indictment of his leadership. there were some rumblings, some murmurings and whispers in his party as to whether he needs to resign following these results. but what we know definitely from party officials is he is not going anywhere. they are promising renewal, they are promising renewal, they are promising to listen to south africans following these results and deliver on those crucial things that people have been calling for. electricity, water, jobs and better education. just electricity, water, “obs and better education. , , , ., electricity, water, “obs and better education. . , ., ., , ., education. just explain now, shall we aet education. just explain now, shall we get the _ education. just explain now, shall we get the amount _ education. just explain now, shall we get the amount of— education. just explain now, shall we get th

but surely cyril ramaphosa cannot go into a coalition with jacob zuma or his people?f the anc that are saying that cyril ramaphosa, as president of this country and president of the anc, should resign from his position because this is the lowest point that the anc has ever got in, in terms of election results. in the last elections in 2019, the anc got about 57% of the vote, and this time around, they're barely holding on to a 40% majority. how likely is it that cyril ramaphosa can do some kind of deal with another party, oranother couple of parties? the democratic alliance, for instance. the anc acknowledges that there will be concessions that they have to make if they want to continue to lead, if cyril ramaphosa is to continue as president of the country. because if not, then the anc will have to sit in the opposition benches and allow the other parties to form a coalition and then govern, which is at this stage highly unlikely. but the democratic alliance has said that it is willing to go into a coalition with the african national congress, but in that there's goin

the expected reelection of cyril ramaphosa will seal his second and final term as president.c alliance leader john steen who was in said the coalition deal will change the course of the country. the anc lost its majority for the first time in 30 years after people across south africa faced sluggish economic growth and poor public services. for the first time, cabinet posts will be shared between parties in a democratic south africa. the debbie speaker from the democratic alliance was sworn in a short time ago. let's get the latest. we go to our african correspondent who has been following those developments for us from cape town. barbara, what is the latest? what can you tell us? >> i have been following the developments through a very long day. this has involved the first sitting of the new parliament in which the newly elected members were sworn in and the speaker was elected and then the deputy speaker was elected and in the election for the president commenced. not to mention the deal you mentioned, the unprecedented deal between the african national congress, the party o

and finally with president cyril ramaphosa, we really haven't seen him since election day. south african politics? well, it does mean he's gathering courage. these are difficult spaces to be in when you've taken the hardest beating as a leader of a party that has ever been given to that particular party. so we'll see him inevitably tomorrow. but i also think that they're trying to figure out what the messaging is going to be, how he's going to spin it. he typically does not enjoy tough interviews, and that's also why he hasn't shown up here. but realistically, he's very vulnerable right now. there are many calls that are being made in various circles that he actually has to give up the ghost and allow other people to lead the party and try to rebuild the party. thank you very much, jamie, forjoining us here on bbc news. so, time is of the essence for the anc because according to south africa's constitution, the next parliament needs to sit within 14 days of the election results being announced. and on that first sitting, the parliament has to elect the president. so there i

and cyril ramaphosa is re—elected president of south africa after his party strikes an unprecedentedtion deal with the opposition. hello, i'm carl nasman. the us supreme court on friday struck down a federal ban on bump stocks, the latest move in america's battle over gun control. bump stocks are gun accessories that allow semi—automatic rifles to fire bullets more quickly, similar to a machine gun. in a 6—3 vote, the court's conservative majority ruled that using firearms with the attachment does not meet the definition of a machine gun under federal law. they determined that the trump administration overstepped its power when it issued the ban back in 2018. that ban came after the deadliest mass shooting in modern us history. 60 people were killed in las vegas and hundreds more injured when a gunman used a bump—stock attachment to fire more than 1,000 rounds of ammunition in about 11 minutes. while more than a dozen states and washington dc have already banned them, friday's supreme court ruling sends the decision back to individual states to determine their own regulations for bum

finally, with president cyril ramaphosa, we have not really seen him since election day and what doesor his fate and position within south african politics? he is gathering courage and these are difficult spaces to be in when you have taken the hardest beating as a party leader given to a particular party. we will see what the messaging will be and how he will spin it tomorrow and he typically doesn't enjoy tough interviews and that is also why he hasn't shown up here but realistically he is very vulnerable right now and there are many calls being made in various circles that he actually has to give up the ghost and allow other people to lead the party and try to rebuild the party. thank you very much forjoining us here on bbc news. time is of the essence for the anc because according to south africa's constitution, the next parliament needs to sit within14 days of the election result being announced, and on that first sitting, the parliament has to elect the president so there is a real pressure on the anc to make sure that its chosen leader, president cyril ramaphosa, retains his po

catherine, you've been monitoring this, a lot seems to be riding now on what the cyril ramaphosa will to take stock of just how bad this result has been for the anc. at the last election, it was able to win about 58% of the vote. this time around by the expectation is that they will win just about 40%, so, losing 18% of its vote, thatis 40%, so, losing 18% of its vote, that is a really terrible result for the anc. considering it has been in powerfor the anc. considering it has been in power for three the anc. considering it has been in powerfor three decades. the anc. considering it has been in power for three decades. 0ver those three decades it has had a comfortable majority in parliament. so, what we are hearing there from the anc secretary—general is that these are bad times for the party, he said, this result sends a clear message to the anc. but it also wanted to make the point that the anc will still be the biggest party in south africa, as he says, the most popular party, according to these elections. what we are expecting to see over the next few hours is this test play out.

this is the moment president cyril ramaphosa took the oath of office.rica and will obey, observe, uphold and maintain the constitution and all other laws of the republic. applause congratulations, mr president. thank you, chiefjustice. applause ladies and gentlemen, the president elect has been duly sworn in. the president of the republic of south africa. cheers here's our africa correspondent barbara plett usher. in his inaugural address mr ramaphosa told south africans that a lot of was at stake. he said this was the beginning of a new era, that this was a moment of profound significance and that's because for the first time the anc is having to share power in what it calls the national unity government and its main partner is the democratic alliance party. it's also because it's crucial for this government to reverse the decline in south africa's economy, to basically get the economy, to basically get the economy working again for people, which it hasn't been, and that's where the anc lost so many votes and is because society is deeply only and highl

and so begins a new era in south african politics, as president cyril ramaphosa — who himself helped. the bbc�*s africa correspondent, barbara plett usher, reports. one of the main reasons the anc haave failed to secure a majority is the surprising vote share secured by former president jacob zuma's newly formed party the mk. despite doing better than almost anyone expected, the party says it is considering challenging the results in court. this report now by the bbc�*s africa correspondent, barbara plett usher. the verdict is almost in — still not official results, but they're clear. the anc has lost its unrivalled political power. it's done even worse than expected, punished by voters, angry about economic mismanagement and corruption scandals. this is a shock to the system for the anc, the celebrated liberation movement humbled by this verdict on its governance. it's the most dramatic political shift in south africa since the end of apartheid, and no one knows exactly what will happen next. we ask for all electoral stakeholders to please remain calm, for leaders to lead this natio

a congratulatory telegram was also sent to cyril romafosia. a number personnel changes in the leadership of the ministry of defense, immediately replaced four deputy heads of the department, who are responsible for financial issues, the social and housing sector, property and construction management, as well as for the work of the ministerial apparatus. natalya solovyova knows who took these positions and what tasks were set by the president. personnel changes with the arrival of the new head of the name defense andrei beloosov were expected and, first of all, they were probably more financial and economic. and the social block of the department, in fact, these forecasts came true. leonid gornin, who previously held the post of first deputy minister of finance of russia and was responsible for budget policy in the field of state military and law enforcement services, as well as state defense procurement, was appointed to the post of first deputy minister of defense. now he will oversee the financial support of the russian army. leonid gornin i

already in place, he was re-elected today for a second term, but why did i mention the president, cyrilth africa, that also an important point that we may not notice, but today the re-elected president of south africa, whom you know, has always treated putin with more respect than western leaders, but he was re-elected in exchange for the creation of a government of national unity. with the party whose leader was in ukraine during the war, he came on his own initiative, he met in lviv, he came, i think, met with the head of the lviv regional administration, with the mayor of lviv andriy sadov, and he said that it was an unjust war, that russia was occupying ukraine, that south africa should support ukraine more seriously, and this man was then the leader of the opposition, and now the logic of the government of national unity, of course, leads to... to the fact that the politics of south africa itself will begin to change, it's just must be realized towards a greater understanding of our vision of war, because cyril ramophosa, if he wants to sit in the chair of the president of the coun

the mk party said it would only work with the party if cyril ramaphosa stepped down. 0ur correspondentanga is injohannesburg with the latest. usually when you have these results, people know what the final declaration will be. do we do expect the ruling african national congress party to lose its majority in the south african parliament and this really is a historic moment for south africa, after 30 years in power, the ruling anc is about to lose its majority, and now has to possibly form a coalition government with other opposition parties. the stage is now set for the electoral commission to announce and declare the results of the national as well as provincial elections. there is underlying tensions in south africa at the moment, and that is because the powerful, influentialformer presidentjacob zuma has urged the electoral commission not to announce the results today. he says his party and a few others are contesting the results that are shown on the board just behind me. they say they need more time to raise those objections, but it is important to say there hasn't been any clear

president cyril ramaphosa was sworn in as president over a week ago.vernment of national unity is failing to find each other. and there's a sense that they're nowjostling for positions instead of focusing on the major priority, which is urgently addressing south africa's problems. let's take a look at other stories making headlines today around the world: the us military shut down a temporary pier used to deliver aid to gaza friday. the pier was removed due to concerns that bad weather could damage it. humanitarian organizations have warned the amount of aid reaching gaza is only a fraction of what the population needs. officials in northeast ukraine say at least one person was killed in a russian missile strike on friday. the attack on a nine—storey residential building in dnipro, caused the top four floors to collapse. a new mexicojudge has denied a last—ditch effort by actor, alec baldwin, to dismiss an involuntary manslaughter charge for the fatal shooting on the set of his 2021 film, rust. the move comes just two weeks before the actor is set to s
