Rubio says South Africa’s ambassador no longer welcome in US after criticizing Trump

Politico  

The rare move to declare the diplomat unwelcome comes amid deteriorating relations apparently driven, at least in part, by the billionaire Elon Musk, the close Trump adviser who is a native of South Africa. The president signed an executive order last month to halt aid to South Africa because of what the administration called “egregious’ actions” taken by the country, referencing a land expropriation law that Trump claimed unfairly targets the white Afrikaner minority. Musk has also amplified allegations of anti-white racism in South Africa, claiming as recently as last week that “Starlink is not allowed to operate in South Africa, because I’m not black.” In return, Rasool has criticized Trump and his allies for promoting white supremacy not just at home but around the world, citing Musk and Vice President JD Vance’s support of U.K. reform politician Nigel Farage and the far-right Alternative for Germany party. “The US / South Africa relationship has now reached its lowest point,” he wrote on X.
