Ever since the times of Josip Broz Tito and the Non-Aligned Movement, Serbia has enjoyed excellent relations with African nations. South Africa is Serbia's closest ally 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 living in the Johannesburg area.[2] South Africa is also voicing support for Serbia over the Kosovo issue.[3] Nelson Mandela has also been made an honorary citizen of Belgrade.[4] Serbia is also actively involved in many investments in Angola with whom it has excellent political and economic relations.
