Xi’s speech would have been his first public remarks delivered abroad this year. Prior to South Africa, the Chinese leader had spent just two days overseas in 2023, when he visited Russia.

President Xi Jinping failed to attend a business forum in South Africa where he was expected to deliver a speech defending China’s economy and its support for emerging markets, as fears mount that the Asian nation’s struggles could cause global turbulence. According to a public schedule, the Chinese leader was set to address the Brics Business Forum on Tuesday, after meeting with South African President Cyril Ramaphosa earlier that day.
