SA-US relations | Relationship between the US and SA complex

Lobby group AfriForum has welcomed the introduction of targeted sanctions against South African politicians by the US. Legislation to review the bilateral relationship between the United States and South Africa has passed through a Foreign Affairs Committee in the House of Representatives. The bill calls for a comprehensive review of the relationship between the US and South Africa. It also seeks to identify South African government officials and ANC leaders eligible for sanctions. To decode this latest development between the US and South Africa we are now joined on the line by Senior Researcher at the South African Institute of International Affairs Gustavo de Carvalho and Free Market Foundation CEO, David Ansara

Trump is isolating America and has no coherent foreign and economic policy.

It's funny that the very same yts are the ones who runs to Washington to asked for the Agoa to be sanctioned while that Agoa was created for them/yts in the 1st place😂 I've never seen such madness in my entire life….The US is slaughtering babies in Gaza so for white SA to cry to be associated with such monsters like that tells a lot abt what type of people we live with in this country 😢

America doesn’t negotiate with terrorists 😂

US must accept that the is no room imperior, Russia and China are fighting for justice on the world,at moment the world is ran criminals, look at what happening in Gaza,

America is using Afriforum to silence South Africa's sovereignty, dignity, and self-determination to destroy SA like the UK and EU did to Zimbabwe… Arise Africa and the global south to protect South Africa ❤🎉.. It can't happen in our time… We can't afford another Zimbabwe in South Africa.. 🎉🎉Arise To defend the Continent,!! SOUTH AFRICA FALLEN IS AN AFRICA FAILURE AND THE GLOBAL SOUTH… WE WILL NOT SELL OUR HARD EARNED SOVEREIGNTY AND FREEDOM TO BULLIES . SA has the right to choose her friends and sympathize with which country she wants .. our sovereign power as a nation. 🎉

So these people say they sanctions anc because of corruption is that their business we are not fools DA AND AFRIFORUM are behind all of this and i wonder which corruption is worse than aphartheid it self stealing everything i mean everything from african people and later pretend to hate corruption 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Our economic future and freedom are not tied to the DA, Trump, Musk, or Afriforum, whose common aim is to exploit African labor and resources. Our true path forward lies in building economic and cultural unity with the rest of the African continent. The USA operates under a mafia-like regime, and there is no honor in compromising or negotiating with politicians who act like gangsters.

Biggest lie: The ANC is not openly hostile to the USA and the WEST ???. Got to read the SABC SCRIPT.

Easy answer: just follow the 4 conditions requested by the USA and stop banging on your tiny drum – Ramapoephole are you listening?.

The United States government has compiled a list of over 40 South African politicians, cronies, and radical ideologues – each of them under consideration for targeted sanctions.

The US is pushing for "regime change" with the assistance of some South African groups. South Africa should have sovereign rights and not be bullied by the US. These guests are US apologists.

Even superpowers are measured by their language, but the ANC has a full go at the USA, unmindful of the consequences. A sovereign country on crutches cannot throw caution to the wind.

This is definately not about corruption in SA, the US just doesn't have the moral ground but unchecked power, to judge us. It's not even about our laws to redress past injustices as some of us would like to believe, they are of no significance to US interest and security. This is simply to punish SA for being a BRICS member and also for the ICJ case. This however, is used internally through propaganda and fear mongering to weaken and threaten the country's sovereignty and its not going to bode well for everyone in SA.

As black man of south Africa 🇿🇦 😂I agree with ANC on America 🇺🇸 they are racist

The gentleman in a blue suit is supporting genocide.

Why Afriforum and other like-minded racists are still in South Africa if things are so bad? Their departure to America is long overdue. The only bad thing about our constitution is for tolerating nonsense like Afriforum and all apartheid nostalgic groups.
