South Africa won't cut ties to Russia because other countries want it to, government says.

So roughly 30K civlians killed and 120K soldiers (UA forces) killed by Russia in an unprovoked invasion.
Not to mention civilians and children raped by Russian forces.
If he same numbers happened in South Africa by a foreign force then ANC would go bezerk and call it the greatest crime against humanity. But today they just call it Thursday and Russia their friend.

Did you not know that communists are usually on the wrong side of the fence? This should not come as any surprise.

Communists don't value lives. Facts don't matter. Communism have shown through history. Only thing that matters is the collective people mindset chosen by whom is in power. People must die and suffer for the system to work
 
“There are some who don’t wish us to have relations with an old historical friend,” International Relations and Cooperation Minister Naledi Pandor told journalists in Pretoria. “We have made it clear that Russia is a friend we have had cooperative partnerships for many years,” she said.

Classic newspeak, nobody said to make enemies with Russia. We are being advocated to take a position on the invasion by Russia. Our neutral stance is blatant bollocks in any case.

Pandor should rewind and review her earliest reaction to the invasion ;)

I happened to catch her speaking on TV, where the SABC highlighted the visit of a Russian minister. She seems to live in an 'alternative reality'.

P.S. Actually I'm not surprised. I went to a public meeting just before the 1994 elections, where she spoke, and the same arrogance was clear.

Saudi Arabia doing their own genocide in Yemen and nobody cares, the US actively supported Pakistan in their genocide of millions of Bengalis.

Governments only care about foreign civilians when there's zero political cost or benefits their political agenda.
 
lol the ironic part is how much they go on about being free from colonialism only to be shackled by their new masters lol….
