The South African communist party has condemned the invasion of Venezuela by United States President Donald Trump. The communists have lamented the kidnapping of the President Nicholas Moduro and his wife. American President Donald Trump says that America will run Venezuela before the a hand over of power to a new administration. The SACP has over the past year been critical of the lack of respect of sovereign states by President Donald Trump. For more discussion on this, we speak to SACP General Secretary Solly Mapaila.

If the SACP were loyal to principle they should have left the alliance when RamaSofa increased VAT in 2018 making many basic goods unaffordable for ordinary SAns😎
I think Europe is also getting tired of the USA and therefore the UN can condemn US military over-extension wars. USA inyoka enenxeba, iyaziluma manje by the way
Everyone knows he was Not elected. He was arrested. Not abducted. Funny how Venezuelans are celebrating, but communists are criticising.
SACP the Chameleons.No more international laws.UN is Dead.This era means War.
Mr. Mapaila for the win!!!❤❤❤
I think Samkelo was on to something at the end there, we could do with more straight talk in our body politic- if the man is a sellout then call a spade a spade.
syabonga Mr Mapayila
SACP ATE BIG LAIRS, THEY JUST SUPPORT COMMUNISM NXAAHH
😅🎉
Why are we listening to the views of the Communist Party about this? Of course they'd take Maduro's side in an ideological bias. Why does SABC have such a hard time getting a proper political analyst?
A communist government. A government that capitalizes profits and socialized losses. But that's not how the market their strategy.
Sjo . I haven't seen so much leis out of the mouth of one person in one interview. Sies SACP
The ANC and their babies should rather run and hide – safer for them. China will do zero because they are too heavily invested in trade that powers China's economy and Russia is over extended. Communism is failing and South Africa will prosper. We need to vote this corrupt ANC and it's babies out of power and the door MUST hit them on the way out. UN will support the USA. I can see a lot of ANC cadres crying into their beer. 😂😂😂. Their days of looting the SA citizens is over.
The whole world is taking note of SACP condemnation of US attack on Venezuela, what a joke.
They know so much about other countries when their own country is falling apart by criminals!!! Charity begins at home!!!
Did the SACP have the same attitude when Russia invaded Ukraine?
Hypocrisy, Hypocrisy, Hypocrisy: if Donald Trump can do whatever he wants in the Western Hemisphere because it's America's backyard, then Vladimir Putin can claim also claim that Eastern Europe is it's Russia"s Hemisphere, hence: Ukraine is similar to Venezuela. Similarly, China can do the same with Taiwan. Every action has consequences, watch the Western Funded Media defend their hypocrisy; like Palestine is a biblical land promised to Zionist Israel; so Venezuela"s resources are biblically America's. Get the F out of here. Viva independent Social Media. Grow a spine SABC, be the independent journalists you were meant to be. IZWE LETHU, I love you journalists but don't subject yourselves to paycheck journalism. Remember Bantu Biko, Chris Hani, Kwame etc. Mzansi is not alone, Africa has leadership to learn from like Nyerere. Read & Learn Mzansi. IZWE LETHU through knowledge.
IZWE LETHU. 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦 PERIOD 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
“Key issues” 😂
THE ANC REGIME!! IS VERY AFRAID!
SOLLY MAPAILA IS PROPER AND FIRM IDEOLOGICALLY SOMETHINGMOST POLITICIANS LACK, THOSE OTHER MANTASHE, NZIMANDE, MANAMELA ARE SELLO-OUTS FOR THEIR STOMACHS, SOLDIER-ON COMRADE
The neocon bots are actvive on the comment section; its either one is blind or bought. What America has done is nothing but colonialism; we are no longer living in the wildwest but a world governed by rules. Remember Allende in Chile in 1973 but before then Patrice Lumumba in the Congo. This is a neocon reaction to a world that has woken up to the abuse of the collectives west continued oppression of the formerly colonised.
Another clown 🤡 that school had NO effect on doesn’t even know what it is to open a book 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Surely we should have another person with a different view as this Communist guy is extremely misleading the public with his ridiculous claims.
The capitalist South African Communist Party😂😂😂
😂Samukelo is anc journalist.
How much did Solly pay for this interview? 😂😂😂
Clowns
Who is going to fund the SACP for the upcoming election
Ayinifuni nina yekelani ezabo lezo
Samkele likes controversy, just by how he's frasing the questions 😅
I do nt trust SACP.
Ignorant people will always pretend not to understand Solly Mapaila.
The sword is mightier than the pen!
Clueless criminals fighting for other countries while their own country is crumbling that.s y I say this country is lead by stupid corrupt dogs just under their noses poor black South Africans leave under poverty but nothing is being done to fix that what have Maduro done to poor South Africans izinja
I wish the SACP can do well in the Local Government Elections.
Ramaphosa represents and is part of CAPITALISTS' BUSINESS INTERESTS.They will never work out with the COMMUNISTS.The COMMUNISTS are for the Exploited Workers.The Marginalised and Poor Masses. As a member of EFF I am happy they took that decision.
Solly is so arrogant, he says he couldn't go to a talkshop but he sent his deputy to a talkshop…😅
Always fighting for outside countries and first it was Israel, now it's Venezuela. Life is hard for Black people in South Africa.
Solly is a joke.,a Idealistic and Theocratic…we are here watching, election year we shall see what will SACP achieve…..then we will know whether they do have something tangible…
The ANC has to strike the balance between politics and business, while the SACP want to pretend as if the government can still do well with policies that are hostile to business.
This guy might wake up in the morning to find himself in America like Maduro of Venezuela. Cowboy trump will ensure it happens 🤣🇿🇦🔥
The South African working class is lucky to have a leader like Solly Afrika Mapaila.
The man is clear on issues, very detailed on matters relating to oil politics and businesses. Also has a better understanding of the history of the alliance. An appreciation of the current political moment
37:51 😂 Samkele a savage sometimes
Hayi mani ma-Africa you are so quiet for my liking on the issue of SACP will go sollo starting with the local elections which will take place later this year….
Mapaile talking nonsense. We have a problem of very high unemployment in SA, crime rate is out of control, the economy has not been growing for the past 17 years and wena you are busy sneaking your nose into the US matters wanting to lecture the US. Pathetic you are just an empty vessel making noise.
Stupid discussion about the murderer Maduro while South Africans are dying of poverty in South Afrika. Mapaile must go stay in Venezuela if they like it or go stay in Russia if they like Russians. SACP has no solution for our problems but busy with the murderers Putin and Maduro
