President Cyril Ramaphosa says the allegations that South Africa supplied weapons to Russia had a damaging effect on the country’s economy and standing in the world.
An independent panel found that the Russian ship Lady R that docked in Simon’s Town, Western Cape last year, did not offload weapons.
Ramaphosa says he will not be releasing the report of the panel given that the evidence provided was classified.
He adds that he will however release an executive summary of the panel’s report today.
