- The Department of International Relations and Cooperation has said in a statement on Friday that the US ambassador to South Africa, Reuben Brigety, had “admitted that he crossed a line” and “apologised unreservedly” after he said a Russian ship had picked up weapons in South Africa last year, causing a diplomatic uproar. Wits University's Professor of International Relations, John Stremlau joins us for more.

He sweared having a solid evidence , why must he apologise? If he lied he must pack his suitcases and leave ! This is very dangerous statement.
It's fake news that is why.
What does he think , we are ? He said > ...He bet his life .... Now where is he not standing up for himself .. Where is he ...?
NOT EXCEPTED ....not excepted ...bullying still carrying on ...How many times should USA being told to back off?
Once
It's America's privilege to lie to loot to stealn and to murder people around the world. They feel nothing for their deds.
Necklace that American pig
Imagine South Africa criticizing USA for supplying Weapons to Middle Eastern countries who accused of crimes against humanity in Yemen/Syria
The resistance in Syria is trained by the US( mind you those are terrorists). Plus they supplied weapons to al Qaeda to overthrow Gaddafi, so yes what you just said is undeniable fact. You don't have to imagine it since it really happened
@@lonewolf3706 Exactly, ISIS is a DIRECT consequence of US warmongering. The war on terror, like their war on drugs, have produced so much more of what it supposedly set out to reduce.
Especially the apartheid Israel killing innocent people with American weapons
Imagine SA criticizing the US for arming Ukraine and thereby causing untold misery to the people of that country, and in fact devastation to its economy, infrastructure and future?
Exactly
Africa is done with being bullied. Times are changing.
The damage America has done to this planet and its people, they have no standing any more.
Wow Jeff, you are brilliant aren’t you; and you also swim with dolphins which is great for them, possibly exposing them to human bacterial and viral infections among other adverse effects. Stressing the animals who are dying in large groups from a measles morbillivirus which may or may not be connected to contact with man is absolutely brilliant. Maybe you should understand what you are doing or saying before you show your general stupidity with regard to both animals and geopolitics. Your self-serving nonsense has no standing with pragmatic reality.
Do elaborate?
Endless wars , wars , wars , government manipulations all over the world , immoralities , can go on for ever ….
If it wasn't for the USA you would probably be speaking German or Japannese today or you would probably not be alive today....
Because South Africa has a spotless record? Please, get real 😅

@@Solanixhanti Mugabe, Gadaffi and even Fidel Castro all had something in common- they refused to bow down to US bullshit and as a result, their countries were destroyed.
China also doesn't bow down to the US but it's way too powerful to be bullied into submission. Same with Russia or Brazil. So they come after SA.
We can't take it anymore to be bullied

spoke for the West

He must apologise publicly .. not buying this Dirco apology story
He should be deported out of S A as he will do it again
Agree, he must be expelled and he and a higher official like Blinken must apologise publicly
😂 the ambassador has free speech and just tells the truth. SA can't take that away. The truth shall set you free.
@@ryanwalters6184 South African law limits speech, in line with the constitution, to protect society large unlike the US. If he comes here, he needs to respect his hosts, not spit on our house
@@CuriousGene9 sorry you can handle the Truth. He was very respectful in his press conference.
The US will uphold any charter and cooperate with any organization as long as it dances to their tune.....
Just like they did with apartheid
The US can't honor any agreement, pact, treaty, promise, contract unless it benefits solely.
An apology is not enough! The statements had far reaching consequences. The US is disrespectful
So does supplying weapons to Russia. The fault lies with the government
I know right!
I personally hurt US because they think they are smart they always make sure theys no peace in the world and everyone must listen to them that's nonsense Africa must not listen to those people we have everything and the same people we think they're helping African countries are the same people are African enemies America must go away we are black and don't need then at all
Angl0regime apology is meaningless. It will again accuse South Africa without any evidence and again apologize. "Apology" is no meaning to shameless angl0regime
Agreed, the US and SA should sever diplomatic relations immediately.
This conveniently timed apology leaves us with no choice but to believe that the US ambassador to SA has a nefarious agenda against us in SA. He must be fired from our peaceful country. We do not want nor support war.
😂
Peaceful country? Maybe internationally, but definitely not locally
That ambassador must be fired
And penalize too!
Absolutely. 😂😂😂
Yes you are must go
persona non grata
The lying ANC must be fired. They deny they sold the weapons. Who are they allowing to offload weapons in their harbours while we sleep?
This man does not understand the history of apartheid in SA. Mandella's statement was that America believes that America's enemies should be SA's enemies.
" To be an Enemy of the US is Dangerous but to be a Friend of the US is Fatal. " - Henry Kissinger
Why do Zionists always misspell Mandela's name and call him Mandella?
@Jorge Gomes
So don't hate them nor love them.
Just stay away from them and do your thing
We don't have enemies like they do in USA
His loyalty is to his American pay master under the disguise that he is a member of the. ANC,
He must apologise loudly as he did the announcement
Or else...? I don't believe apology will do. He's not safe in your country.
There is no apology needed, the embassy need to close and must go back to USA. That is all. That nonsense can not happen in the USA…
Why did the US instigate a war with Russia? that is the real question, why after the Kremlin told the UN to stop encroaching on their border through the neighbor nations surrounding Russia in 2014 did they still follow through with supplying those countries with Arming those nations with Weapons?
He must apologise with his life as he vowed with his life that we did it ...and publicly
and that was only yesterday!!! What an idiot!!??
Say that 💯🔥
What does he think , we are ? He said > ...He bet his life .... Now where is he not standing up for himself .. Where is he ...?
NOT EXCEPTED ....not excepted ...bullying still carrying on ...How many times should USA being told to back off?
He only apologized for the way he handled the situation. The matter is still being investigated so he might still be right you imbecileidiotretard.
Apologizing does not mean he did not tell the truth. It can mean that he apologized for breaching protocol. (Pomposity).
He publicly dragged us to filth on international television. If he is to apologise, I reckon he should do it just as publicly
Thank you 😂
Nailed it
He said he bets his life on it so bring him and lets see what he has to say!
Absolutely I agree
He didn't say he was wrong. He only apologized for the way he said it
The crazy thing about this is that the US itself supplies arms to Ukraine, so I don't get the balance of who has the right between us and them to supply arms in a conflict zone.
Why did this guy accuse SA of villainy openly ? Then apologize so secretely? SA should demand an apology openly !
Because SA was trying to cover it up. This was spoken about many times before through official channels.
And that should make you question you who is hiding the truth? SABC, we are waiting to see and hear the apology.
@@jonye7511 Exactly!. A quick papering over the crack's job by the government's official mouthpiece. Lie and deny - more like Russia by the day!.
@@ryanwalters6184He apologized after the outrage yesterday in many parts of South Africa demanding evidence and they made it clear to the US "we cannot be bullied by the US".

I've never heard such a biased take on the Ukraine/Russia conflict but it isn't unexpected from people like this gentleman.

He is a total hypocrite Professor 😮. His previous interview was so anti-SA anti-ANC led government.
He doesn't seem to have any idea what he's talking about. USA destroyed Iraq with their lies
If any other nation’s ambassador was to be positioned in US and was to make claims on that level about the US instigation the start of the military exercise, they would mysteriously disappear in a freak fishing accident.
We need a public emphatic apology. Consequences must follow.

Let the Ambassador come clean about who told him to give that allegations.
🤣 i suspect it's DA
The ambassador's comments were outrageous and unwarranted and he must publicly apologize.
And the blind lead the blind

As for the US ambassador we all aware of how the US operate. As for the so called White South Africans there is no place for you in Europe or America get used to the idea of the End is here
Yes the DA is the 3rd force in SA. Dirty tricks by both, DA & USA.
Something fishy here!!!
That is what I don't like about the DA. They sometimes bark like a dog which is scared of the dark. They should wake up and investigate things before making allegations.
Whenever America wants to bully a country, I say lets do the opposite and help Russia.
its not about Russia its about brics
Help the terrorist state Russia?
@@MJN260 I hope this is not your real name a real picture of yourself. Reason? Because you're showing how ignorant you are to the entire world. I suggest you do some reading before accusing any country of terrorism while leaving out the US. That's assuming you know how to read...

And at the same time some opposition leaders in the country believed it was true.i cover my face for them now since it's clear nothing happened
Foreign direct investment is not investment. The US just concentrates markets with their multinationals and their dividends aren’t kept within the country.
100%
Yeah. Wealth generation is created, its dividends are shared, wealth isn't finite.
exactly
False alerts of terrorism,which USA is known for in South Africa,have serious consequences, such as causing unnecessary panic and fear among the public, leading to wastage of resources in responding to non-existent threats, and damaging the reputation of individuals or communities.

Because of the fact that SA has painted itself into a corner regarding the Russian / Ukraine crisis, not being able to produce any kind of logical position or proclamation, and also because SA will be absolutely dead in the water, should relations between the US / Europe and SA be cut off, they are trying to maintain the status quo. That status quo being the maintenance of the stance taken by almost all African countries, which is holding out both cupped hands pleading for funding from the West, which is immediately plundered by the criminal politicians / business leaders and simultaneously attempting to maintain relations with communistic Russia and China. This will never work because the West are sick of the African influence on world stability, and unless the ANC/ EFF is unseated, the country is undoubtedly doomed to sink beyond a point of recovery (very fast approaching). It's the typical African story, blaming the West for building that which exists in Africa, yet at the same time, pleading the West to fix the exact same things which Africans have broken post colonialism. Utterly illogical, yes. The ANC / EFF dictionary has no translations for the words "consequence", "accountability" or "responsibility". According to their thinking, those are colonial concepts and irrelevant in the African tribal context.
@@grantswart8304 Russia isn't even communist but go off. We are clearly being economically bullied. Even if we did supply the Russian with weapons, it would not have broken any SA, US or International law. The sanctions are unilateral and not mandatory.

I doubt that South Africa can sell super Hightech weapons to a super power like Russia. I mean those guys have weapons that are more advanced than the USA.

Hey Professor you are wrong! Your ambassador was out of line…
Nope. Sa was clearly in the wrong to supply arms and claim to not do it.

This was all a plot guys. The US is now looking for a reason to justify sanctioning SA
Can the world move away from the dollar and let them prove themselves they are a great nation.

If russia had a country on America’s border it would be a massive issue, so the same with Nato on russia’s border….. Russia is not in the wrong here, if America would just mind their own business it would be a different story.
he accused us publicly....he must apologize publicly
Take that. Ambassador and throw him in a pit with the ANC , DA, EFF and all political parties and politicians and let's take this country back and make it great again for all it's citizens
I would like to ask the old man if we were not having military dealing with the US after they invaded Iraq, Libya Afghanistan and Syria. Did we sanction the US? He seems to be choosing to ignore most of his memory for whatever reason.

Very easy to find out who made the arms deal. Just following the paperwork or lack of it will lead to the people responsible.

Being neutral is exactly what SA is doing. Neutrality does not mean a country has to criticize or blame Russia.
Exactly why should we take sides and follow their stance.
But it does mean NOT supplying them with weapons
@@mandlamhambi6756 Because you keep running to America cap in hand begging for maaaaanie !
Selling weapons is totally neutral… just like how the US is neutral in supporting Israel in the conflict with Palestine right? /s the hypocrisy by the likes of you is the reason 5-10 years from now our unemployment rates will look more like Zim than the disastrous state we are in now already… pathetically sad and short sighted how you view this - speaks words more than any diplomat on our nations position in the world and specifically position on peace for the Ukrainian people.

Uranium for nuclear
If that white man is a professor at a South African University, he is most likely spending his time trying to ensure black South African students develop the colonial mindset he has which is dangerous for the future of South Africa. Only a colonial mindset would not be able to see the obvious difference between Iraq being attacked and destroyed for no reasons under the cover of lies presented at the United Nations and Russia's conflict with Ukraine which they were forced into by an illegal overthrow of Ukraine's democratically elected leading to the massacre of 48 innocent people who were surrounded and burnt alive in a building and then the slaughter of over 14,000 Ukrainians with Russian relatives in the Donbass. To say the Ukraine government doing all this is a country minding its own business when it is so blatantly obvious that the slaughter of 14,000 people has taken place with all diplomatic attempts and agreements to stop the slaughter broken by the Ukraine government, is something only a colonial mindset could say. To a person with a colonial mindset, over 14,000 people slaughtered for rejecting the illegal overthrow of their democratically elected government is acceptable as long as it is instigated by a former colonial power or their friends to serve their own interests. This is a mindset that so nothing wrong with Apartheid, the atrocities and thefts of colonialism and the transatlantic slave trade. These are people who saw nothing wrong with hundreds of thousands of Africans, if not millions, being thrown off ships into the ocean alive and left to drown. Only a colonial mindset can see an organisation travel across seas and oceans, and through countries until they reach the doorstep of another where they want to set up nuclear missiles, and think that organisation is not an aggressor and the country defending itself from such actions that have been brought their doorstep putting them and their people at high risk is the aggressor. This colonial mentality is the mentality of this man and he is trying to coherse young black South Africans into it so that they succomb to such behaviour and can no longer recognised who their true friends are and who are those working to keep them poor, destabilised and in continuous poverty allowing them to for ever continue their exploitation of South Africa. It makes me wonder if he is a South African or a spy serving former colonial powers and their friends against South Africa. As for his comments about South Africa's economy, if he wants to be useful, he and his partners in Apartheid should be revealing just how many containers of diamonds and gold they handed over to former colonial powers and their friends during Apartheid so the gold and diamonds can be returned and the South African economy can properly reflect its true worth and true worth in gold and diamond reserves. If he and his white Apartheid partners who were in power does not reveal this, the forgiveness given them for their participation in Apartheid and its atrocities should be withdrawn and their South African citizenship deporting them to live with the former colonial powers and their friends they wish to protect. Peace and love
So SA should go back 400 years to clear the colonial mindset?
Apartheid lasted 30 years, and the ANC reign lasted 30 years...which one did the most damage?
So 400 years ago your forebears were sitting behind cows, drinking beer and watching women work...what you doing right now?

Justifiably so.
Wait you hear from the Ambassador. I don't think he apologized at all and government is making it up to save face!
I am not surprised by hegemony state
an apology shouldn't be as public as the accusation.
That sounds like a threat " it would be wise for any country......"
He did not apologize for his statement about weapons but apologized about not following diplomatic channels
Yep. So funny seeing this spin.
What does he think , we are ? He said > ...He bet his life .... Now where is he not standing up for himself .. Where is he ...?

@@setumomahakoe7791 he should be deported out of S A as he is a dangerous man
Which probably means the ship left with a bunch of ammo. I'm sure someone "had to eat."
Well said - in fact I`ve seen no hard evidence of an actual apology for his manner.
Can we have some fact checking on what the professor said, please? DID SA have military dealings with Russia or not or is it uncertain? There are a lot of statements being made as fact in this video and some seem to contradict.
It really doesn't matter whether SA had military dealings with The US. The fact that remains is that allnunilateral sanctions by the US and it's allies have no basis in iternational law and should be conidered null and void! Palestinians have been sufferinfg at the hands of a US ally, Israel fir eternity and the US always blocks UN redolutions targeted at the apartheid government of Israel. As we speak, the Israeli government continues to kill innocent Palestinians with weapons supplied by the US.
But so what if South Africa sale weapons to russia the evil west selling weapons all over the world
Why one needs to be extra careful of reporting where Russia/China/Ukraine and USA is concerned...especially with elections coming in 2024.
Basically, he is not retracting his accusations. Just apologizing how he said it.
When has South Africa ever raised concerns to the US for all the activities and operations they have conducted all over the world.

This is a bilateral matter between SA and Russia, two sovereign countries...Is it Yankee problem? The world policeman

Modern day intimidation.....
If I were to make the assertion that 'white people in South Africa support USA in the Ukraine-Russia conflict', I may face consequences from commenting, as such a statement can be viewed as potentially discriminatory and divisive. However, it is concerning that there may be instances where other individuals or entities are allowed to make statements that are perceived as racist or prejudiced, which can contribute to further marginalization and discrimination. It is important to acknowledge the historical and systemic injustices that have led to the need for representation and advocacy for marginalized communities, particularly in South Africa. They downplay the severity of the harm caused by apartheid or deny that apartheid was a form of racial discrimination. Some may even try to portray apartheid as a positive force for development and progress.
Like the Critical Race Theory Ideologues who want to reintroduce racial segregation in the public education system in the USA?
Apartheid is classified as a Crime against Humanity by the UN so any attempt to reintroduce it's concepts are immediately null and void from the start unless you get rid of the UN Resolution that classifies it as such.
