DIRCO MUST BRING OUR MEN HOME
Cape Times
|December 01, 2025
IN THE world of geopolitics, it is easy to forget that international relations are, at their core, about people. This truth has never been more stark than in the plight of 17 South African men currently stranded in the deadly conflict zone of Ukraine.
-
Their situation is a litmus test for our government's commitment to its citizens abroad, and it is one we cannot afford to fail. The details, as they have emerged, paint a picture of desperation exploited. These men, lured by the promise of work and a better life, travelled to Russia only to be tragically deceived. They were not volunteers for a cause, but pawns in a brutal conflict, ultimately finding themselves abandoned in the Russia-Ukraine war.

Hands off white South Africans, Trump
DONALD Trump’s obsession with the myth that white people in SA are being targeted, mistreated, killed and property confiscated ad nauseam is not only a malicious lie, it’s designed to draw attention away from the mess in his own backyard where 80% of middle class Americans own a paltry 20% of America’s wealth. Translated, this means that most middle class working Americans are relatively poor and unable to make ends meet. In South Africa whites who make up just 9% of the population own almost 70% of the wealth. Whites own almost 75% of all agricultural land including all farms. The wealthiest 10% of South Africans (mostly white) own 85% of South Africa’s wealth. Factually South African whites are, by far, better off financially than their American counterparts...and this is what galls Donald Trump.
