PeruâSouth Africa relations refers to the current and historical relations between the states of Peru and South Africa. Both countries established relations in 1974 [1] and reestablished them in July 1993, [2] after the end of Apartheid. [3]
Relations were officially established in 1974, [1] although they existed unofficially beforehand, as seen in the appointment in 1970 of an honorary consul of South Africa in Peru. [4] [5]
During the 1980s, Peru played an active role in opposing the South African policy of Apartheid, participating in the World Conference on Sanctions against Racist South Africa that took place in June 1986 in Paris, organised by UNESCO. [6]
In 1985, the Peruvian consulate general in Cape Townâthat had existed since at least the 1960s [7] âwas closed by Allan Wagner TizĂłn in protest of Apartheid and the South African occupation of Namibia. [8] In 1986, prior to Namibian independence and as part of the protests, the Peruvian government severed its relations with the South African government and established relations with the South West Africa People's Organisation (SWAPO), [9] [10] which would become the ruling party of an independent Namibia in 1989, during a that year's summit of the Non-Aligned Movement. [11] [12] As part of this development, SWAPO President Sam Nujoma visited Lima and a SWAPO representative office was opened in July of the same year. [13]
Other developments that year included a monetary contribution to the Africa Fund, the naming of ambassadors to Kenya and Zimbabwe, an assessment mission to Zambia and in October of the same year, Peru hosted a meeting of cooperation with Sub-Saharan countries in Lima, where four countries ( Kenya, Ghana, Nigeria and Equatorial Guinea) joined the Frontline States. [14]
In 1988, the "Seminar on the Role of the Latin American and Caribbean Media in the International Campaign against Apartheid" was held in Lima with the cooperation of the Peruvian government and was chaired by Acting Foreign Minister and Minister of Justice Gonzalo Durant AspĂllaga. Attendees included 17 Latin American and Caribbean countries, South African journalists and SWAPO representatives. [15]
After the end of the racial policy and the independence of Namibia, Peru opened an embassy on January 11, 1994. [2] [6]
In 2010, a statue of Nelson Mandela was inaugurated in San Isidro, a district of Lima. [16] The inauguration ceremony featured then South African ambassador Leslie Manley. [17]
South Africa's embassy in Lima, which had first opened in January 1998, [2] [18] [19] closed in 2021. [20]
South Africa is the main destination of Peruvian exports to Africa. [21] Peru opened a commercial office in Pretoria in 2013. [22]
In 2019, trade between Peru and South Africa decreased by 33.9%, reaching US$77 million, having increased by US$6 million the previous year. In the five years prior, Peruvian exports to South Africa decreased at an average annual rate of 15.4% and in 2019 totaled US$42 million. [23]
Diplomatic relations between South Africa and Peru were established in 1994. Formal representation was resumed in July 1993 at the request of the Peruvian Government. Peru decided to open an Embassy in South Africa, and Peru's first Ambassador to South Africa, Mr Jorge Valdez Corillo, arrived in South Africa on 11 January 1994. South Africa re-opened an Embassy in Peru in January 1998.
In 1970 het die Suid-Afrikaanse regering ook vir die eerste keer'n erekonsul te Lima, Peru, aangestel.
