    US expels South African ambassador

    Rasool's pro-Palestinian views and criticism of Israel seemed to have also played a part in the measure

    The US Government expelled South Africa’s Ambassador Ebrahim Rasool this weekend after Secretary of State Marco Rubio declared him “persona non grata” for being a “race-baiting politician” who hates America and President Donald Trump. The decision followed Rasool’s comments during a South African think tank webinar, where he described Trump’s “Make America Great Again” movement as a response to demographic shifts and a form of “supremacist assault.”
