“South African President Running His Mouth Against Trump”: US On Skipping G20 Talks | N18G



The White House hit out Thursday at South Africa’s leader for “running his mouth” over the United States’ boycott of this weekend’s Group of 20 summit in Johannesburg in another diplomatic rift between the U.S. and a country that has been especially targeted for criticism by President Donald Trump.
South African leader Cyril Ramaphosa told reporters in Johannesburg that the U.S. had indicated it was changing its mind over its boycott of the G20 leaders summit at the “late hour” and wanted to take part.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said that was not true and had sharp words for Ramaphosa in response.
“I saw the South African president running his mouth a little bit against the United States and the president of the United States earlier today, and that language is not appreciated by the president or his team,” Leavitt said at the White House.
She said the U.S. was sending a diplomatic official to the summit to simply recognize that the U.S. will take over the rotating presidency of the bloc and host near year’s G20 summit. A representative from the U.S. Embassy in South Africa will attend the formal handover ceremony at the end of the two-day summit that opens on Saturday, but Washington still won’t take part in any talks, a White House official said. The official wasn’t authorized to speak publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity

  1. The little girl called press secretary talks of an African leader running his mouth, what's is needed to educate empty brains in America. We have the worst running nations today. White males who abuse under age girls and at the same time leaders of nations. United States not participating at the G-20 didn't stop the submit from holding. It was well organized and will be better than anything US will do next year. With or without US life will continue.

  2. Arrogance won't stand last, what she thinks of herself. What is she? She was talking about the president of south africa. This shows the true mentality of Americans and how they wants to treat non-white race.

  3. HoW about if president of South Africa closes all american based mines in SouthAfrica like Glencore, Anglo American mines nd others, maybe this arrogant nitwit will respect us again….shut all american mines nd hand over to China, I pray

  4. This woman needs to learn how to respect the president of South Africa. Even if she does not agree with him. Disrespect of any president is unacceptable. Who the fù£k does she think she is. Her language is what is not acceptable!!

  5. 😂😂 no one appreciate USA…fu¢king idiots roaming around white house…. Why this only country has issue with every other country in the world….. It's the proof that USA itself is phishy and we all know they sponsor terrorist and drug cartels….it's well known
