Hello Einstein. I love that you think Trump's America cares about you and your country, Zimbabwe. But here is a brief history lesson: It is South Africa that has lobbied the US to drop sanctions against Zimbabwe. Under George W. Bush, America passed the Zimbabwe Democracy and Economic Recovery Act (ZDERA). Thabo Mbeki lobbied aggressively against this. Zuma continued where Mbeki left off. Ramaphosa also pushed this as one of his agenda items in his last meeting with Biden. The result? Well, in 2024, the USA adjusted and refined the original legislation. South Africa's case to the USA, ON BEHALF OF ZIMBABWE - because YOUR leaders could not travel - was that sanctions on Zimbabwe are counterproductive as they weaken the REGION and affect ordinary citizens more than politicians. Under Ramaphosa, RSA supported SADC's anti-sanctions initiative AND made this a bilateral issue with the USA. The strategy was that it should not just be South Africa advocating for your country, but the entire region. PS - I love a good debate. I enjoy it when someone with sound research and knowledge pushes back against me. It is always such a disappointment when my opponent is ill-informed.

I don’t think Trump cares about me, neither do I care about him. You care about Trump and South Africa which is why you and Chris Maroleng were on Capitol Hill dragging your country and government. If South Africa cared about Africans it would not allow its hoodlums to terrorize other Africans on their continent
