Serving in this role and fostering the strong relationship between the United States and South Africa has been an immense honour," Brigety said in a statement.


He said US ambassadors serve at the pleasure of the president, and with the recent election in the US, the American people have expressed their choice for the future direction of the country.


Reflecting on his tenure, Brigety said the US and South Africa witnessed "remarkable progress" in partnership.

The ambassador said these initiatives have contributed significantly to the country's economic development and support more than 267,000 jobs in South Africa.
