CAPE TOWN: The US has accused South Africa of providing ammunition to Russia through a Russian ship that docked at the Simon’s Town naval base in Cape Town in December last year.
US ambassador to South Africa Reuben Brigety said America was convinced that SA, despite the fact that it claims it takes a non-aligned stance on Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, had supplied arms to Vladimir Putin’s army.
Vincent Magwenya says the Presidency has noted the reported remarks attributed to the US Ambassador, and we will respond in due course.
Meanwhile, the Rand has plunged against the US Dollar, tumbling to a three year low mark of R19, 30.
