Serbia–South Africa relations

Serbia	South Africa

Serbia and South Africa maintain diplomatic relations established in 1992. Serbia has an embassy in Pretoria and South Africa a non-resident embassy in Athens (Greece) which is also accredited to Serbia.

History

South Africa is Serbia's traditional partner in Africa and the two nations have had excellent relations since the signing of diplomatic relations in 1992 following the end of the apartheid system. South Africa is also home to around 20,000 Serbs, mainly residing in the Johannesburg area. South Africa has voiced support for Serbia over the issue of Kosovo's independence. Nelson Mandela is an honorary citizen of Belgrade.

In 2010, Serbian Minister of Foreign Affairs Vuk Jeremić visited South Africa and met International Relations and Cooperation Minister Maite Nkoana-Mashabane. During this visit, Serbia pledged its support for South Africa's candidature for a non-permanent seat on the United Nations Security Council for the 2011–2012 term.
