South Africa and the ANC wants US aid (or is it USAID) while conducting an anti-American foreign policy. That´s multi-vectoralism on a really high level. Support Russia, Hamas and Iran...but demand American funding! The ANC delegation may be headed by Cyril Ramaphosa himself, who is the president of South Africa. His private fortune is apparently about 450 million dollars...
Btw, the article is wrong about the Democratic Alliance. It´s no longer an opposition party sensu stricto. The White, liberal and pro-Western DA is part of the South African "government of national unity" formed last year. Which presumably explains why it, too, wants US aid to continue.
If Trump and Rubio want to meet the South Africans at all, is apparently not clear at the present time.
South Africa to send 3 delegations to the US - but who will they meet?
Either they are playing 5-D chess or they are just really stupid.
ReplyDeleteSince the ANC are in coalition with the DA, they probably think that this will somehow save their asses, but I kind of doubt it...
ReplyDeleteC'mon guys! They're coming to meet President Musk! Asking for some of the cash being siphoned out of the US Treasury...
