Bloomberg published on 24 January 2023 an article titled "South Africans Favor US, Shun Russia in Clash with Policy Bias" by Antony Sguazzin.
The Social Research Foundation conducted a poll of 3,200 registered South African voters in 2022 asking where they would prefer to live and work other than South Africa. The highest number of respondents (one-third) chose the United States while 22 percent said the United Kingdom. Just over 1 percent selected Russia and less than 1 percent China, both well behind Cuba's 9 percent.
