    South Africa are definitely supplying arms and ammunition to Russia, that's a given.
    Ukraine, your wasting your time with Ramaphosa as he will not help you, he just likes the cameras, he has no power over other African countries as we have become a laugh for the world to see.
    Oh, Cyril Ramaphosa, give some of the money stolen by the ANC/EFF Alliance which means you mr President, the buck stops with you, give your wealth that was stolen from your people to support Ukraine, i bet you will refuse this request

    The South African Government are useless, they must first fix😂 our country, which the ANC/EFF have destroyed economically and socially, Cyril Ramaphosa is a Russian brother from another mother

    If the South African Government never stole or farms and killed our farmer, if we had trade expertise in this country, but because we older white tradesmen and trade instructor's, as myself , we will never get to train a generation due to reversed racism.

    Don't believe Cyril Ramaphosa, what has he or any president before him and since after Madiba retired from politic.
    I hope finally one day Madiba gets his Rainbow Nation and his soul can finally rest.

    And this message is for the United States and Israel, there had better be a ceasefire immediately or the world will turn on you, stop the genocide 😐😞🌍.
    Putin is laughing as he has a finger in every war going on in the world.
    Putin, just wait a bit longer till South Africa votes.
    The Democratic Alliance will win, because they are the only party going beyond their duties to support the people who are in dire need of everything.
    I plead with all South Africans, lets finally get on and select the Democratic Alliance as your new government, follow in the footsteps of or Cricket and Rugby teams who play with heart because they love their country and people.
    Let's become a first world country and 🌈 Rainbow Nation like Madiba dreamt of.🌈

    'I will separate Putin from Xi Jinping': Republican Vivek Ramaswamy's exotic doctrine
    Vivek Ramaswamy, American businessman and candidate for the 2024 presidential elections for the Republican Party, has attracted attention in the media due to his unorthodox positions on foreign policy.
    Speaking recently at the Nixon Library (California), Ramaswamy explained how he intends – if elected – to carry out one of the most surprising geopolitical maneuvers of the 21st century.
    In short, Ramaswamy intends to separate Russia from China and isolate not Moscow, but Beijing! To carry out this maneuver, the Republican pre-candidate intends to use what he called the "spirit of Nixonian realism" (in reference to President Richard Nixon, who governed the United States from 1969 to 1974).

    When it is well-known He is very conning and covert. When his actions revel the true ultraviolence. When he dress and speak so formally to cover up his actions. When all 2. rate Russians citizens are
    brutally destroyed in war, how is it then Ramaphosa possibly would trust such a guy to like Africa. How is it possible, except if he induce a dream in Ramaphosa of greatness. So when the day comes, P will be gentle to R. Are all Africans that naïve?.

    putin is a liar! Ukraine has supplied grain to Africa for a long time without problems. now not long ago ukraine attacked the bridge that goes over to crimea. in response, putin has attacked grain warehouses and threatened all cargo ships crossing the black sea that they will be blown up if they try to cross. no shipping company dares to cross the black sea now. This has now led to Russia taking over from Ukraine when it comes to grain.
    Putin is now trying to be a saving hero for Africa, even though he himself is behind this crisis.

    By doing these frequent trips to Russia, African leaders are showing their support. On the face of it, it looks like they're merely there for the free goodies Putin is handing out (grain, weapons, cash etc), but in reality the world is busy choosing sides for WWIII and Africa has clearly chosen. How much longer will the west merely observe?

  23. @edwardburns5431

    December 23, 2023 at 6:49 pm

    The South Africans are traitors. When Russia, China, and the remaining members of BRICS (minus India) are left behind in the wake of the Wests success, South Africa will realize they choose to align themselves with dictators and inferior cultures. Absolutely pathetic.

South Africa is one of your second homes. Thank for taking care of President Zuma , who is sick in Russia, right now. 👏👏👏From an old lady who was there to witness your work. 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦

Could China’s Robot Olympics change the world? | BBC Newscast

Published

on



Today, we discuss China’s £14.7bn investment into AI and robotics in the hopes of overtaking the US as the world leader in innovation.

China has two million robots already working in factories, and is investing heavily in the hopes that one day they could bridge gaps in an already sluggish economy. What can these robots do? And what does the future look like for workers? Our China correspondent Laura Bicker has been to some of these factories, and is on the line to debrief.

Plus, the government has announced more details about their housing plans, including where 70,000 social and affordable homes will be built in England over the next 10 years. 60% of the new homes would be for social rent, despite Andy Burnham telling The Social Housing Podcast in May he “would actually devote all of it to social housing.”.

Is Andy Burnham delivery what he promised? Adam is joined by Alex and housing correspondent Tarah Welsh.

Five years on from the Taliban’s takeover of Afghanistan | BBC News

Published

on



It has been five years since the Taliban retook control of Afghanistan, as western forces left, imposing their extreme, ultra-conservative interpretation of Islam on millions of people.

Their return to power brought relative peace to the country after two decades of war.

But Afghan women have been erased from public life. Girls are banned from school from the age of 12, and aren’t allowed to go to university.

Public parks are also off limits to women – and they can’t travel abroad without a male companion.
