Wonder if he is introducing himself to Russian leaders which is what Zuma was going to do for him.
Is there a nuclear deal on the way? #AskingForAFriend
Except Ramaphosa landed in Japan.
Ramaphosa was attending the seventh Tokyo International Conference on African Development taking place in Yokohama.
The conference will be convened under the theme of "Advancing Africa's Development through Technology, Innovation and People" from Wednesday to Friday.
