The US House Foreign Affairs Committee has advanced a bill that could impose sanctions on South African government and ANC officials, citing concerns over South Africa's foreign policy and ties with countries like Russia and Iran. The legislation calls for a comprehensive review of US-South Africa relations and has sparked strong reactions from South African leaders, including President Cyril Ramaphosa, who says he is perplexed by the move. Critics warn that such sanctions could harm ordinary South Africans and further strain already fragile diplomatic and economic ties. The ANC is seeking support from US Democrats to block the bill, while some analysts caution that the sanctions may backfire and deepen divisions within South Africa. The bill still needs to pass further legislative hurdles before becoming law.
