‘Stay out of SA’s affairs,’ Julius Malema warns Donald Trump

On Thursday, EFF leader Julius Malema lashed out at US President Donald Trump‚ whom he referred to as a pathological liar‚ demanding that he stay out of SA’s domestic affairs.

This comes after Trump tweeted that he had asked his secretary of state to look into land expropriation without compensation in SA.

Malema said at a media briefing at the party’s headquarters in Braamfontein that the EFF would not be intimidated by the US. "We want to send a strong message to the US authorities‚ just like we did to the Australian authorities: stay out of SA’s domestic affairs.

"SA is a post-colonial country with deep racial inequalities that were long designed by apartheid and colonisation. Our land expropriation programme seeks to realise the ideal of equality and human dignity‚" Malema said.

He said that the process of land expropriation was a means to force white people to share land which was gained through a crime against the humanity of black and African people.

"We must put it on record‚ unequivocally‚ [to] Donald ‘the pathological liar’ Trump: we are not scared of you and your US or Western imperialist forces‚" Malema said.

Julius,I've spent time in South Africa...recently. I've also recently spent time in Tanzania,Kenya,Malawi and Zambia.

Most of the cities and towns I saw in SA feature a settlement of shacks that I can only describe as cesspools.

Perhaps it would be wise for SA to imitate the policies of prosperous countries/regions like Western and Central Europe,the United States,Canada,Australia...among others.

Or corrupt politicians like yourself can continue to demand more of the same.

“In a couple years the blacks will have “their” land back but will all be starving.”

And demanding that we let them in here, in our racist country.
