Pandor says they have asserted their independent and non-aligned views on the matter. The Minister was addressing the media on Pretoria’s position with regard to the current conflict on Friday. Pandor says, “There needs to be consistency in the approach of the international community to countries that violate international law. When Israel launched sustained offensive military operations against the Gaza strip, killing hundreds, flattening homes, burying civilians under the rubble, and devastating the already dilapidated infrastructure in such a small and densely populated area, the world failed to respond in the same way it has on Ukraine.

Pandor says, “I’m worried if we place Russia outside of the institutions of global governance. We’re almost giving Russia licence to say do as you wish; to some degree how do we advance peace.”

Sad that South Africa does not support Human Rights in Ukraine. The government obviously has some secret pact with Putin.

Couple of months ago I came across a recommendation about AmelieBtc1 wealth how he helped investors to earn lots of money with their investments. and I decided to give a trial with the little I have. Now my little has turned into something great which was not my expectation

Naledi is now flip-flopping on his stance about Russian invasion of Ukraine......it is never too to unseal those bank statements

But aggression by Russia is okay?

I will always remain indebted to you. Thanks for going that extra mile to make this month a Success and restoring back my glory days, words cant thank you enough JonathanHele
