US Politicians Press Trump To Isolate South Africa Over Ties With Russia And China

#africanews #trump #ramph If there is any country that qualifies to be the greatest bully on earth, it's the United States. We have seen it play over and over again. Anytime a country doesn't heed the demands of the US or follow its ideals, principles, and interests, the US always finds a way to punish such a country. Now, if you have been following the news, you would know that the incoming President, Donald Trump has been on a power trip, threatening to impose tariffs on rivals such as China and allies such as Canada. And all of these are simply tactics to ensure that the US remains the dominant force in the globe. But right now, US politicians have turned their attention to South Africa. They want Trump to punish South Africa for daring to ally with the US rivals and enemies, including China, Russia, and Iran. But how do they plan on punishing South Africa? And, will South Africa cower before the US? Let's find out. On January 20th, 2025, Trump will be sworn in as President of the United States and he already has a list of things he plans to do on the very first day. On his list is punishing those countries that have refused to heed his demands. Perhaps, South Africa will be among those countries. You see, some key Republican politicians are already pressing Trump to kick South Africa out of a lucrative trade agreement between the US and African countries known as the African Growth and Opportunity Act, AGOA. These politicians want Trump to kick out South Africa from AGOA unless it changes its position on Russia, China, Iran, and Israel.
