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.

  1. TENSION ? WHICH SOUTH AFRICA YOU TALKING ABOUT ? PLEASE STOP LYING THERE ARE NO TENSION OR NO OUTRAGE , YES DEMOCRATIC ALLIANCE SIDE WITH UKRAINE AND ANC SIDE WITH RUSSIA THAT IS A FACT. BUT TENSION AND OUTRAGE YOU TALK ABOUT IS LIES FROM HELL , YOUR TONGUE IS EMPOWERED BY THE DEVIL HIMSELF !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  2. 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

  3. Is Ukraine now controlling the planet.? Who is Zelensky to impose anything on a neutral state. Worse still RSA is a member of BRICS.

  4. 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.

  5. 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.😂😅

  6. The dutch that was left behind during slavery now has something to say about putin how disrespectful they are not innocent themselves

  7. 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.

  8. 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.
