“Trump Hater”: South African Envoy Expelled | Firstpost Africa | N18G

South Africa announced on Saturday that its US ambassador had been given a 72-hour ultimatum to leave the country. This comes after US Secretary of State Marco Rubio accused him of being “a race-baiting politician who hates America and hates Trump,” in a post on X. Rubio reposted an article quoting the envoy as saying Trump was leading a white supremacist movement. Reposting it, Rubio declared that Rasool was “no longer welcome” in the United States. The expelled envoy, Ebrahim Rasool, is a former anti-apartheid campaigner and an ally of Nelson Mandela. South Africa has called the decision to expel Rasool “regrettable.” An official statement from President Cyril Ramaphosa’s office urges “diplomatic decorum” between the two nations. Meanwhile, opposition parties in South Africa have called on the president not to be “bullied” by the US. Watch the video for more.

  1. After USAID has provided billions to SA every year, the back stabbers, turned on the hand that fed them…good as not one citizen has benefited when international funding was diverted into private government pickets. Rasool, who lived a lavish and privileged life in USA as SA Ambassador , then insults the President of his host country. Shows you we have no manners or etiquette. We think no one is listening, and can put our mouths before our brains. This journalist should fave included Rasools speech and let people decide for themselves whether the USA was correct or not. Rasool is not an ally of Mandela. Mandela was an elderly man who was a man of stature and of great significance and to mention his name in the same sentence as Mandela is an insult.

  2. Yes trump hates Africa. All Americans must leave Africa too. Racist trump he thinks he owns africa? No, wake up Peter Pan boy you are dreaming. Africa is not for sale and as you ban African from entering your country as African we do not want white Americans to come to africa. Period.

  3. PRAY FOR SOUTH AFRICANS PLEASE SOUTH AFRICA 🇿🇦 IS FALLING APART…POLITICIANS ARE DIVIDING SOUTH AFRICANS PRAY THAT THE ALL MIGHTY GOD WILL STOP THEM AMEN 🙏🏻 PEACE ✌🏾 TO ALL SOUTH AFRICANS ✌🏾 🙏🏻🇿🇦🙏🏻✌🏾🙏🏻🇿🇦✨️✨️✨️🇿🇦🙏🏻✌🏾

  4. Who hated who firstly? Would he be treated wit kitty gloves, when already his country was being shredded into strips by USA? Good he belongs to a country, he's no nomad, come back home brother, also Samson lost his power at one stage, tricked and double crossed.

  5. It doesn't matter he must come back where he is wanted every body has right to freedom of speech no one is above the law what must he do kiss him 🥺🥺🥺🥺😲😲😲

  6. Viva ANC voter's viva, thank you for the potholes, no electricity, corruption, Nkandla firepool, phala phala sofa banking, digital vibes corruption, no postal service, viva ANC voter's viva

  7. South Africa, is being bullied because they took a stand against genocidal slaughtering and war crimes being committed against the Palatinian people. Mark Rubio is a puppet of AIPAC. He's has got a lot of nerves.

  8. The real reason this happenes in not because of their racist policies against whites and the genocide happening in South Aftica only.
    The main reason is the ANCs love for Iran and because of the ICJ case against Israel which has got nothing to do with rightousness but money.

  9. Sorry they are killing white farm land owners that have been there 200 yrs and generations of peaceful people are having their land stolen …that's sad but t get to America asap

  10. Mandela was a terrorist, Rafool is also one. Heck the anc is still a terrorist organization and will certainly get the attention they don't want. Mandela should have been hung for treason, imagine if it did happen.This country would be flourishing with the darkou's in the tribal spaces and not the mess they created. Verwoerd was a visionary! I salute him 🫡
