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.
