'Where Is U.S?: Lula, Carney Laugh As Ramaphosa Bangs Gavel To Handover G20 Presidency To U.S As South African President Cyril Ramaphosa formally closed the historic G20 Summit in Johannesburg — the first ever held on African soil — an unexpected moment stole the spotlight. After Ramaphosa banged the gavel to officially hand over the G20 presidency to the United States, Brazil’s President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and his South African counterpart, were caught on camera laughing and reportedly asking: “Where is Trump?” The U.S. President had boycotted the summit entirely, accusing South Africa of persecuting the Afrikaner white minority — a claim Ramaphosa has repeatedly dismissed.
