Recebo com alegria e gratidão suas felicitações, presidente @CyrilRamaphosa.
O povo brasileiro reafirmou sua confiança na democracia. Nossos encontros frequentes nos últimos anos fortaleceram ainda mais a parceria estratégica entre nossos países.
Seguiremos trabalhando juntos no G20 e no BRICS para ampliar a voz do Sul Global, combater a fome e a pobreza e promover a reforma da governança global, em defesa de uma ordem internacional mais justa, democrática e inclusiva.
On behalf of the government and the people of South Africa I congratulate my dear brother and friend, President @LulaOficial and the people of Brazil.
This victory will echo beyond the shores of Brazil. It is a victory for the global south and progressive forces throughout the world.
We affirm our commitment to continue strengthening bilateral relations between our two countries and working closely together in all multilateral fora to forge a just and better world order underpinned by solidarity and adherence to international law.

Wonderful to see Navi Pillay’s work recognized with the Nobel Peace Prize today. Her dedication to justice, human rights and accountability to those who commit unlawful acts and atrocities whether apartheid in South Africa or genocide in Gaza is inspiring and shows us the path to peace.

What this means in simple terms
If a foreign couple has a baby in South Africa, the baby’s birth must be registered even if the parents are undocumented or overstayed their visas. The child must be issued a birth certificate recording the facts of their birth that can lately be used to register their children in their countries.
What it does not mean:
-It does not make the child a South African citizen.
-It does not give the parents legal status or permanent residence.
-It does not stop Home Affairs from deporting parents who are in the country unlawfully.
The judge specifically emphasized that birth registration does not automatically confer South African citizenship.
Undocumented parents won a legal battle after the Western Cape High Court ruled that the Department of Home Affairs acted unlawfully by refusing to register the births of children solely because one or both parents lacked valid immigration documents.
