South Africa: Outrage as Russia’s Naval Ship Docks at Cape Town | Firstpost Africa
The recent docking of a Russian navy ship at Cape Town harbour has triggered outrage. The Ukrainian Association of South Africa has expressed anger saying the incident calls into question South Africa’s purported neutral stance on the Russia-Ukraine conflict. The Democratic Alliance, President Cyril Ramaphosa’s coalition partner, has also condemned the incident as “cosying up to Russia”. Amid the outrage, the South African National Defense Force said the Russian vessel docked for re-supply purposes. South Africa and Russia share decades-long ties. Both countries are also BRICS partners. South African President Cyril Ramaphosa has also refused to criticise Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine. Watch this video for details.

Clearly, the D.A is a cia backed party.

BUT TENSION AND OUTRAGE YOU TALK ABOUT IS LIES FROM HELL , YOUR TONGUE IS EMPOWERED BY THE DEVIL HIMSELF !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
South Africa DOES NOT belong to Ukraine

This is evidence that DA doesn't have the best interest for South Africa
Racist news outlet
SA goverment are F-UP.
Which of the Ukraine are we talking about here? The very Ukraine that wouldn't allow the black Africans in their country to enter the trains but asked them to walk to Poland when the war started. The Western hypocrisy stinks
Doing what there please?
There you go again.
South Africans are NOT happy. Russia is NOT WELCOME!
ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!!!
Is Ukraine now controlling the planet.? Who is Zelensky to impose anything on a neutral state. Worse still RSA is a member of BRICS.
Viva they are most welcome
We are a rainbow nation
Slava Russiya ❤❤❤
Who is Outraged?
We even want Russians to begin visiting African Visa free
Who authorized this to happen without the people of SA participation, not even the Mayor of CT knew… WTF SA GOV….
I don’t understand the fuss. Is South Africa not a member of BRICS? They are strategic partners.
NATO has violated post Cold War agreements with Russian Federation. NATO has no moral high ground here.
S A is no more safe now there are invol in the war on Russian side
Here is the reality of international affairs.
(Anglo-Saxon + Jews) VS (Russian Slavic + Chinese Han)
Western World only consist 15~20% world population with about 45 countries, while rest of Global South consists of 80~85% population with 150 countries.
When you mentioned "International Community" is actually meant "Anglo-Saxon Community". And they are the minority of the world. Period.
Please show videos of your claims, so you will be believed.
Good… If this illegal alien drama continues …
Maybe they should dock in NY Harbor along with China…
If the ship was American or British ship it would have been normal, no qualms. So what's the problem when the ship is owned by Russia. So if south africa supplies weapons to Russia, what's the problem? Is NATO and Europe not supplying weapons to Ukraine? Double standards all the time.😂😅
The dutch that was left behind during slavery now has something to say about putin how disrespectful they are not innocent themselves
Look out of the USA ISRAEL PRO GROUPS in South Africa.
WFT These white folks talking or rather complaining about Russian ship docking in SA.
we are russia and russia is us
we dont` like USA south africa is not your baby
Its not a crime…we have an africa first policy…
The people who moan about the Russian ship are also the people who support the Jews killing the Palestinians and their children.
we are the S in BRICS aren't we?? so what the fuss??
This is not a conflict it is how ever an ttack on Russia by NATO countries.
apartide propaganda
If Ukraine wanna come dock their ship, they can come too
Asina problem nabo thina 😂😂
WE WILL ALWAYS BE WELCOMING TO THE RUSSIANS. THEY WERE OUR HELP WHEN YOU SO-CALLED JEWS WERE ABUSING US. REMEMBER SLAVERY ? YOU OWNED THE SHIPS, FARMS AND THE DERIVATIVES OF SLAVERY. REMEMBER APARTHEID ? YOU AGAIN. YOU ARE WICKED AND SHAMELESS.
Sup with the Devil?
Russia?oppression?noooo😂😂😂
All African nations must support the racist Ukraine against Russia.
Yet, NOT a peep from those racist Ukrainian boot-licking Nazis about Ukrainian, French, and NATO mercenaries, along side Arab ter….ists *deleting* Malian Soldiers and Civilians.
This is just the tip of the iceberg!😮
You never ever leave the school yard same tactics same bullies
Which outrage are you on about? Not here
Well done South África, keep up the good work!!✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
Ukraine cannot deceive and scam the entire world.
