Deputy Minister Thandi Moraka led a Nelson Mandela Day outreach in Waterberg under the theme: “It’s still in our hands to combat poverty and inequity.” She handed over sewing machines, planted vegetables and encouraged local empowerment with partners incl. Korea. #MandelaDay
Do you know that the following countries have relations with Iran: Sweden, UK, Australia, Denmark, France, Germany, Japan and Netherlands to name but a few.
They can. But it is in the eye of the beholder. I doubt US would accuse France and Australia of being aligned to Hamas for their stance on Gaza including recognition of Palestine? I doubt. Will they sanction their leaders? I doubt.

Thank you Chrispin, I as a South African am proud of our stance on this matter and please no matter what resist all the pressure, no financial loss or whatever they are threatening us with is worth denying a live genocide we are clearly seeing with our own eyes.
Sound reposte by Chrispin. Criticism is fine, but for too long we have allowed those who support, tacitly or otherwise, the most brutal and visible genocide of a generation to bizarrely believe that they somehow do so from some sort of moral authority.
Repeating the same tropes over and over again (at home and abroad) does not make them true. Your narrative conveniently overlooks the profound historical arc that has shaped our nation's foreign policy. As President Mbeki famously articulated, our objective, despite our own…
With all our imperfections this great nation, South Africa, is on the right side of history.

Known as ''Place of Great Noise". Just outside Upington, Augrabies Falls National Park is where the mighty Orange River shows off, thundering down a 56-meter drop into 18km gorge below. It’s loud, it’s wild, & it’s unreal. 📸 @elmar_venter #FindYourWarmth #ItsMySouthAfrica

Today, I spoke before the House Foreign Affairs Committee to oppose H.R. 2633. This bill, driven by Extreme MAGA ideology, risks dismantling decades of diplomatic progress with #SouthAfrica. There is no #whitegenocide in South Africa: this false narrative must be rejected.
