Black Agenda Radio · Trump Attacks South Africa

In a recent executive order, President Donald Trump condemned the Republic of South Africa claiming that “... its recent land confiscation act to seize disfavored citizens’ property without compensation, the government of South Africa blatantly discriminates against ethnic minority descendants of settler groups.” He also condemned South Africa for charging Israel with genocide at the International Court of Justice. We’re joined by Lefika Chetty, head of international Relations in the province of Gauteng and a member of the Central Committee Subcommittee on International Relations of the South African Communist Party to discuss Trump’s claims.
