General Rudzani Maphwanya's Iran comments spark South Africa row
I thought that South Africa has been pro Iran for a while now? Can anyone explain why this is particularly controversial?
They are pro-russian too (would be good to give pro-russia SA blacks a first hand taste of russian racism).
It's the timing. The don't want even more issues with the US oligarch regime.
Europe still has bad influence in africa
I think saying that Iran has historically stood for oppressed people should be controversial everywhere.
