- 11:28Speaker 3: there before and it looks really fantastic. I must congratulate you,
- 11:33Speaker 3: thank you, But I also thank you for allowing our delegation.
- 11:37Speaker 3: This is a very mixed delegation that you've got. We've
- 11:40Speaker 3: got people from government, my ministers, I've got someone from
- 11:45Speaker 3: the trade union movement who we really collaborate with, and
- 11:49Speaker 3: from business as well.
- 11:51Speaker 1: And I was sporting legends when I spoke to you.
- 11:54Speaker 3: You said yes, come along and bring Gary play or
- 11:58Speaker 3: bring any else.
- 11:59Speaker 1: And person brought the two of them.
- 12:04Speaker 3: Now I spoke to him and he said, look, I'm
- 12:07Speaker 3: getting rather on in my years, but wishes us luck
- 12:11Speaker 3: in this discussion with you.
- 12:14Speaker 1: So it's a real joy.
- 12:15Speaker 3: And I'd also like to thank you for allowing your
- 12:20Speaker 3: people to study discussions with us at the trade level.
- 12:24Speaker 3: I mean, we are essentially here to reset the relationship
- 12:28Speaker 3: between the United States and South Africa. We are long
- 12:33Speaker 3: long standing partners in many many ways. We've collaborated in
- 12:38Speaker 3: many fields in space issues, in energy, and in trade,
- 12:43Speaker 3: and we therefore need to reset that, particularly in the
- 12:47Speaker 3: light of some of the announcements that you made on
- 12:51Speaker 3: trade and investments. So we want to advance more trade
- 12:54Speaker 3: between the two of us two countries, and our people
- 12:59Speaker 3: now have been empowered by yourself and by myself to
- 13:03Speaker 3: start engaging, and we hope that we would be able
- 13:06Speaker 3: to fuel that engagement during our talks. And we also
- 13:11Speaker 3: want to discuss issues that have to do with how
- 13:14Speaker 3: we promote further investments in both countries. We've got about
- 13:19Speaker 3: twenty two companies from South Africa that have invested in
- 13:22Speaker 3: the US, thus creating a number of jobs. And similarly,
- 13:26Speaker 3: you've got almost six hundred companies that have invested in
- 13:30Speaker 3: South Africa, and some of them have been in South
- 13:33Speaker 3: Africa for more than a.
- 13:34Speaker 1: Hundred years, so our links.
- 13:38Speaker 3: Are really long lasting, and we would like to recalibrate
- 13:42Speaker 3: those relations between our two countries and discuss a whole
- 13:46Speaker 3: range of issues. Geopolitical. The work that you're doing to
- 13:50Speaker 3: being peace around the world in Ukraine and in the
- 13:54Speaker 3: Middle East, so we value that, and we are also
- 13:57Speaker 3: a great contributor to processes that are going on around
- 14:01Speaker 3: the world. And of course we want to discuss how
- 14:04Speaker 3: we can support each other. You are a much bigger
- 14:07Speaker 3: economy than we are. We're just a tinning economy, but
- 14:12Speaker 3: we rely on each other on a number of issues.
- 14:15Speaker 3: We've got critical minerals that you want to fuel the
- 14:20Speaker 3: growth of your own economy and reindustrialize, so we have
- 14:24Speaker 3: that on offer, including minerals. So all that combination of
- 14:31Speaker 3: opportunity and the products that we buy from you as
- 14:36Speaker 3: well as what we sell to you, I believe makes
- 14:39Speaker 3: up a really good and powerful relationship which we need
- 14:43Speaker 3: to strengthen, which we need to engender, and that is
- 14:47Speaker 3: really what has brought us here. And we are really
- 14:50Speaker 3: privileged to have great South Africans in the mix. As
- 14:54Speaker 3: you said you'd like to see them as well. Now
- 14:57Speaker 3: brought you a really fantastic golf Uh book weighs fourteen kilograms.
- 15:05Speaker 1: Oh that's good.
- 15:06Speaker 3: And it showcases the golf courses in our country. Uh,
- 15:11Speaker 3: and Rupet wrote uh preface, so did any else? And
- 15:17Speaker 3: I want to showcase our golf courses. You might remember
- 15:21Speaker 3: when I spoke to you and we spoke about golf.
- 15:25Speaker 3: You said I should start practicing, and I've started practicing.
- 15:28Speaker 1: President, so I'm ready.
- 15:31Speaker 3: Uh, but let me end just the introductory remarks by
- 15:35Speaker 3: thanking you. You may not recall that five years ago
- 15:38Speaker 3: I spoke to you during the COVID period, right, And
- 15:43Speaker 3: it was at a time when uh, the whole world
- 15:46Speaker 3: was going through a really cathartic moment, right, and we
- 15:49Speaker 3: asked for assistance, and you were able to assist us
- 15:52Speaker 3: a rest bless a respirators, respirators, respirators and uh, you
- 16:02Speaker 3: kept your word and you delivered respirators to us.
- 16:05Speaker 1: We didn't have as many in our kind of kid.
- 16:08Speaker 3: It really helped UH to deal to help us deal
- 16:12Speaker 3: with COVID. So I'm here also to say thank you
- 16:16Speaker 3: and to thank the people of America for having helped
- 16:20Speaker 3: us during a really difficult time. Being this small economy
- 16:24Speaker 3: that we are. We needed help from around the world
- 16:27Speaker 3: and you were there to provide that.
- 16:29Speaker 1: So thank you very much.
- 16:30Speaker 2: Remember the call, Yeah, we said a hundred and fifty
- 16:33Speaker 2: respirators who became uh, the respirator king. We started making them.
- 16:38Speaker 2: Nobody had 'em. We had very view of 'em. That's right,

- 17:15Speaker 2: Well, this is a group NBC that is truly fake news.
- 17:20Speaker 1: Uh.
- 17:20Speaker 2: They ask a lot of questions in a very pointed way.
- 17:23Speaker 2: They're not questioned their staments. U. We've had tremendous complaints
- 17:28Speaker 2: about Africa, about other countries too from people.
- 17:32Speaker 5: Uh.
- 17:32Speaker 2: They say there's a lot of bad things going on
- 17:34Speaker 2: in Africa, and that's what we're gonna.
- 17:36Speaker 1: Be discussing today.
- 17:38Speaker 5: Uh.
- 17:38Speaker 2: When you say we don't take others or all you
- 17:40Speaker 2: have to do is take a look at the southern border.
- 17:42Speaker 1: Uh.
- 17:42Speaker 2: We let twenty one million people come through our border
- 17:46Speaker 2: totally unchecked, totally unvented.
- 17:48Speaker 1: They came from all over the world. In many cases
- 17:50Speaker 1: they're criminals.
- 17:51Speaker 2: They come from prisons, they come from mental institutions, they
- 17:54Speaker 2: come from street gangs, they drug dealers.
- 17:57Speaker 1: Uh, So don't say that we didn't take them. We'd
- 17:59Speaker 1: take 'em.
- 17:59Speaker 2: We're trying to get them out as fast as we
- 18:01Speaker 2: can and we're doing record business on that.
- 18:04Speaker 1: And we just want a big case.
- 18:05Speaker 2: We're allowed to send back hundreds of criminals through Venezuela
- 18:10Speaker 2: just won that today and the Supreme Court I'm happy
- 18:13Speaker 2: to hear. But we do have a lot of a
- 18:19Speaker 2: lot of people are very concerned with regard to South Africa,
- 18:22Speaker 2: and that's really the purpose of the meeting. And we'll
- 18:24Speaker 2: see how that turns out. But we have many people
- 18:27Speaker 2: that feel they're being persecuted and they're coming to the
- 18:30Speaker 2: United States. So we take from many many locations if
- 18:34Speaker 2: we feel this persecution or genocide going on.
- 18:38Speaker 1: And we had a lot of people.
- 18:41Speaker 2: I must tell you, mister President, we have had a
- 18:44Speaker 2: tremendous number of people, especially since they've seen this. Generally
- 18:48Speaker 2: they're white farmers and they're fleeing South Africa and it's
- 18:53Speaker 2: you know, it's a very sad thing to see. But
- 18:56Speaker 2: I hope we can have an explanation of that, because
- 18:58Speaker 2: I know you don't want that.
- 19:00Speaker 6: Uh.
- 19:01Speaker 2: And uh, it's you know, it's a kind of a
- 19:04Speaker 2: different meeting. Normally we have meetings, we talk about trader,
- 19:07Speaker 2: we'll be talking about trade and other things. But uh,
- 19:10Speaker 2: that certainly will be a subject that comes up. Yeah, please,
- 19:16Speaker 2: bright babe, very much. Let's meat your boss on Letitia James,
- 19:19Speaker 2: director of POLTE. According to him, Latitia James says that
- 19:24Speaker 2: the alleged mortgage fraud simile of the state.
- 19:28Speaker 1: Uh when you meet your bonds on match, did you
- 19:30Speaker 1: put down that her her.
- 19:31Speaker 7: Her father was her husband.
- 19:34Speaker 1: And in a word, and this is very similar to
- 19:36Speaker 1: I guess the balls.
- 19:37Speaker 2: And well, I don't know what it is currently, but
- 19:40Speaker 2: Letitia James, who's the Attorney General of New York State.
- 19:43Speaker 1: Uh, it seemed I'm not involved in that at all.
- 19:46Speaker 2: I know they're it's being handled by s various groups,
- 19:50Speaker 2: I guess, but it's uh it's major fraud uh mortgage
- 19:55Speaker 2: documents and uh fraudulent everything. I think she said the
- 19:59Speaker 2: father was her husband, which she had to have a
- 20:02Speaker 2: husband or so she chose her father and she put
- 20:06Speaker 2: it down and she's had had Uh didn't she uh
- 20:10Speaker 2: sign in Virginia yet she's she said she lived in Virginia,
- 20:13Speaker 2: yet she's the New York State Attorney General. And she
- 20:16Speaker 2: did that for tax reasons so she could take advantage
- 20:19Speaker 2: of taxes.
- 20:20Speaker 1: And she had the wrong number of units.
- 20:22Speaker 2: She had a much different number, which wouldn't have allowed
- 20:25Speaker 2: her to qualify and and scam the government.
- 20:28Speaker 1: So I don't know. I think she's very bad for
- 20:31Speaker 1: New York. But I really don't know too much about her.
- 20:33Speaker 1: But I appreciate the question. Thank you very much.
- 20:35Speaker 7: Ye, so will.
- 20:44Speaker 6: Be the celebration of.
- 20:47Speaker 1: Each on the world in the United States.
- 20:53Speaker 2: Why does your next sis live and started African s well,
- 21:01Speaker 2: I wanna see peace, and I wanna see happiness, I
- 21:03Speaker 2: wanna see health.
- 21:04Speaker 1: And you know you have incredible land. There's tremendous value.
- 21:08Speaker 1: A lot of countries don't have that value in the land,
- 21:10Speaker 1: the value you have. You know, we have a situation.
- 21:13Speaker 1: I think you probably heard about it. If we've UH.
- 21:16Speaker 2: Done through some very talented people helped UH settle a
- 21:20Speaker 2: war that's been raging for years.
- 21:23Speaker 1: Rwanda and the Congo who and I think we've done it.
- 21:26Speaker 1: I believe it or not, I think we've done it.
- 21:29Speaker 1: And uh I could you just say a few words
- 21:31Speaker 1: about that, my friend.
- 21:32Speaker 8: Yes, UH, A couple of weeks of movie signed if
- 21:35Speaker 8: they signed, the two party signed the vacuation or principally
- 21:39Speaker 8: in which the.
- 21:40Speaker 1: Weed on the way forward and we're uh.
- 21:42Speaker 8: They have both submitted uh uh drift peace agreements and
- 21:47Speaker 8: we we have UH put together one that incorporates both
- 21:52Speaker 8: of their suggestions and we've given it to them. So
- 21:55Speaker 8: we're in the process of finalizing the right looking very
- 21:58Speaker 8: good use.
- 21:59Speaker 3: You know, we have to thank you for even those
- 22:01Speaker 3: efforts because they're the African continent, particularly Sadak of a
- 22:06Speaker 3: Southern African development community has for years been seeking to
- 22:10Speaker 3: foster peace in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. So
- 22:15Speaker 3: all efforts, including those from outside the continent and inside
- 22:20Speaker 3: the continent are really worth one. We have just we
- 22:24Speaker 3: are remove removing our troops from there so that peace
- 22:29Speaker 3: can then prevail in that whole area. And uh we
- 22:33Speaker 3: hope that uh, with the support of the international community, Uh,
- 22:37Speaker 3: we will really have peace in that area. It's so
- 22:40Speaker 3: vital and so important for the whole region.
- 22:43Speaker 2: Well, we sent to our people there, uh, and I
- 22:47Speaker 2: think we did.
- 22:47Speaker 1: A very good job. I said it by my friend
- 22:50Speaker 1: and that was great. That was great.
- 22:52Speaker 2: I mean, I'm just hearing phenomenal reports because all I've
- 22:54Speaker 2: hearing is death, death, and the chopping heads off, and
- 22:57Speaker 2: it's a.
- 22:57Speaker 1: Horrible over there, and and uh it's it was really
- 23:01Speaker 1: brave of you to go there, and I really appreciate it.
- 23:04Speaker 2: And it looks like that, it looks like we have
- 23:06Speaker 2: something very very substantial. We also uh talked about trade
- 23:10Speaker 2: with them in terms of uh rarer at all, but
- 23:14Speaker 2: UH really more for the It's like, uh, if you
- 23:17Speaker 2: take a look at what we just did with Pakistan
- 23:19Speaker 2: and India, we settled that whole and I think I
- 23:24Speaker 2: settled it through trade. We're we're doing a big deal
- 23:27Speaker 2: with UH India. We're doing a big deal with Pakistan.
- 23:30Speaker 2: And they said, what are you guys doing? You know,
- 23:32Speaker 2: they somebody had to be the last one to shoot,
- 23:35Speaker 2: but the shooting was getting worse and worse, bigger and bigger,
- 23:38Speaker 2: deeper and deeper into the countries.
- 23:40Speaker 1: And uh, we spoke to 'em and we I think
- 23:44Speaker 1: we you know, I hate to say, we got it settled.
- 23:46Speaker 2: And then two days later something happens and they say
- 23:49Speaker 2: it's Trump's fault, but uh, we Pakistan has UH got
- 23:54Speaker 2: some excellent people.
- 23:55Speaker 1: It's a really good great leader than India. Is my
- 24:00Speaker 1: friend Modi Mody and he's a mutual friend. Yeah, he's
- 24:03Speaker 1: a great guy. And I call them both and we
- 24:07Speaker 1: we just, uh it's something good. We Uh we're trying
- 24:10Speaker 1: to settle Russia, Ukraine.
- 24:12Speaker 2: You spoke with UH President Putin for two and a
- 24:15Speaker 2: half hours the day before yesterday.
- 24:18Speaker 1: Think we made a lot of progress, But that's a bloodbed.
- 24:21Speaker 2: Five thousand people are being killed a week, five thousand
- 24:23Speaker 2: soldiers a week, not including people in cities and towns
- 24:27Speaker 2: that are also being killed.
- 24:29Speaker 1: So we're trying to help and it doesn't affect us.
- 24:32Speaker 2: It's not our people, it's not our soldiers, it's not
- 24:34Speaker 2: our m it's Ukraine and it's Russia. But if we
- 24:38Speaker 2: can say five thousand souls willn't do it, you know,
- 24:40Speaker 2: we'll be pretty good at it. But it's a that's
- 24:43Speaker 2: a bad situation. That is a really bad situation.
- 24:46Speaker 3: Well, you'd recall when the president is it ask you
- 24:48Speaker 3: us come into South Africa.
- 24:50Speaker 1: That's when I spoke to you. That's right.
- 24:51Speaker 3: We both agree that we needs to push the peace
- 24:54Speaker 3: message so that it can be to be peace. And
- 24:57Speaker 3: we've been involved, uh in the U Great Russia conflict
- 25:01Speaker 3: for quite a while. To my Minister of State Security here,
- 25:05Speaker 3: we've been dealing with them in the exchange of children
- 25:08Speaker 3: were taken away, going through names and addresses and all that.
- 25:13Speaker 3: So we've been invested in that whole process as well.
- 25:16Speaker 3: And the moves that you're making are fully supported by
- 25:20Speaker 3: us because we would like to see the end of
- 25:23Speaker 3: that war.
- 25:24Speaker 2: Sure, I called Zelenski and they said he's in South Africa.
- 25:28Speaker 1: I said, what the hell is he doing in he
- 25:32Speaker 1: was talking to He said, what you're doing in South Africa?
- 25:39Speaker 1: He's trying to make peace.
- 25:42Speaker 3: But we we taking him, you know, we were we
- 25:45Speaker 3: were lucky people. We had the great Nurse at Manila
- 25:48Speaker 3: who taught us how to create peace, to make peace.
- 25:52Speaker 3: So we were imparting some of those lessons to him,
- 25:56Speaker 3: some of those learnings, and I specifically mentioned to him
- 26:00Speaker 3: this is how nurse and Manetta told us that when
- 26:04Speaker 3: you want to have the peace in a country, do
- 26:07Speaker 3: it on an unconditional basis and sit down and talk.
- 26:11Speaker 1: And that's precisely what I'm sure he's going to heat.
- 26:15Speaker 2: We want to see what happens with that when it's
- 26:17Speaker 2: a lot of there's a lot of hatred, there's a
- 26:19Speaker 2: lot of a lot of death.
- 26:20Speaker 1: It's a bloodbath.
- 26:22Speaker 2: I get the unfortunately, I get the satellite pictures of

- 32:52Speaker 2: sites over a thousand of white farmers. And those cars
- 32:59Speaker 2: are lined up to pay love on a Sunday morning.
- 33:03Speaker 2: Each one of those white things you see is a
- 33:06Speaker 2: cross and there's approximately a thousand of them. They're all
- 33:12Speaker 2: white farmers, the family of white farmers. And those guys
- 33:17Speaker 2: aren't driving. They're stopped there to pay respects to their
- 33:20Speaker 2: family member who's killed. And it's a terrible sight. I've
- 33:26Speaker 2: never seen anything like it. Both sides of the road
- 33:31Speaker 2: you have crosses. Those people are all killed.
- 33:44Speaker 3: Have they told you where that is, mister president? I mean,

- 34:40Speaker 1: have to do with the guitar? Jet?
- 34:42Speaker 2: They're giving the United States Air Force a jet? Okay,
- 34:45Speaker 2: And it's a great thing. We're talking about a lot
- 34:47Speaker 2: of other things. It's NBC trying to get off the
- 34:50Speaker 2: subject of what you just saw. You are a real
- 34:53Speaker 2: you know, you're a terrible reporter.
- 34:55Speaker 1: Number one, you.
- 34:56Speaker 2: Don't have what it takes to be a reporter, you're
- 34:58Speaker 2: not smart enough. But for you to go onto a
- 35:00Speaker 2: subject about a jet that was given to the United
- 35:03Speaker 2: States Air Force, which is a very nice thing. They
- 35:06Speaker 2: also gave five point one trillion dollars worth of investment
- 35:10Speaker 2: in addition to the jet. Go back, You have to
- 35:14Speaker 2: go back to your studio at NBC because Brian Roberts
- 35:18Speaker 2: and the people that run that place, they are to
- 35:20Speaker 2: be investigated. They are so terrible the way you run
- 35:24Speaker 2: that deatwork and you're a disgraced No more.
- 35:27Speaker 1: Questions from you.
- 35:27Speaker 15: Go ahead, go ahead, talk about that. His name is
- 35:34Speaker 15: Peter something. He's a terrible reporter. Quiet, quiet, let's go.
- 35:45Speaker 1: Thank you very much. What would you like president to
- 35:50Speaker 1: do about the situation?
- 35:51Speaker 2: I don't on the screen, I don't know or look,
- 35:56Speaker 2: these are articles over the last few days, death of people, death, death, death,
- 36:08Speaker 2: horrible death.
- 36:10Speaker 1: Death. I don't know to pick anyone.
- 36:14Speaker 2: White South Africans are fleeing because of the violence and
- 36:18Speaker 2: racist laws, and this is all I mean.
- 36:22Speaker 1: I'll give these to you so when you when you
- 36:25Speaker 1: say what would I like to do? I don't know
- 36:26Speaker 1: what to do. Just look at this white South African
- 36:29Speaker 1: couple say that they were attacked.
- 36:31Speaker 7: Violently and will you go and see what your son?
- 36:36Speaker 6: Well, I could do that.
- 36:37Speaker 2: Look, here's burial sites all over the place. They're all
- 36:39Speaker 2: these are all white farmers that are being burned. And
- 36:42Speaker 2: he asks about a jet that was given.
- 36:45Speaker 1: You ought to be ashamed of you. You know, you're
- 36:47Speaker 1: you are so.
- 36:48Speaker 16: Bad, You're such a bad reporter. This is one after
- 36:58Speaker 16: another that this family he was wiped out.
- 37:01Speaker 2: I'm just looking, well, I think it's I think the
- 37:10Speaker 2: videos are so no. No, when you look at the videos,
- 37:14Speaker 2: I mean, how does it get worse? And these are
- 37:16Speaker 2: people that are officials and they're saying that kill the
- 37:19Speaker 2: white farmer and take their land.
- 37:22Speaker 6: That's what.
- 37:23Speaker 2: And I have other friends in South Africa have people
- 37:26Speaker 2: that left, one in particular that says it's you.
- 37:30Speaker 1: Can't go there.
- 37:30Speaker 2: He said, they want to take your land, they take
- 37:33Speaker 2: your land, and they kill you. It's okay, And they
- 37:36Speaker 2: say it's okay to do. Now we're going to talk
- 37:38Speaker 2: about it. But this is a tremendous Look, this is
- 37:41Speaker 2: a story of recent These are all people that recently
- 37:44Speaker 2: got killed.
- 37:46Speaker 1: And I don't know how it can get any worse.
- 37:52Speaker 2: And you know, the man that you saw the men
- 37:54Speaker 2: that you saw, the people that you saw that, well,
- 37:56Speaker 2: those are officials, those are people that were in office.
- 38:00Speaker 2: They had one march, they had a dance in your parliament,
- 38:05Speaker 2: whatever you may legislature.
- 38:07Speaker 1: Let me verify that.
- 38:08Speaker 3: Yeah, let me clarify that, because what you saw, the
- 38:12Speaker 3: speeches that are being made one that is not government policy.
- 38:17Speaker 3: We have a multi party democracy in South Africa that
- 38:21Speaker 3: allows people to express themselves, political parties to adhere to
- 38:26Speaker 3: various policies and in many cases or in some cases,
- 38:30Speaker 3: those policies do not go along with government policy.
- 38:36Speaker 1: Our government policy is.
- 38:39Speaker 3: Completely completely against what he was saying, even in the parliament.
- 38:46Speaker 3: And they're a small minority party which is allowed to
- 38:51Speaker 3: exist in terms of our constitution.
- 38:53Speaker 1: But you do allow them to take land? No, no, no, no,
- 38:57Speaker 1: do allow them to take money. Nobody can take where
- 39:00Speaker 1: fake the land? They killed the white farmer.
- 39:02Speaker 2: And when they killed the white farmer, nothing happens to them,
- 39:07Speaker 2: nothing happens.
- 39:08Speaker 1: That is criminality in our country.
- 39:11Speaker 3: People who do get killed, unfortunately through criminal activity are
- 39:17Speaker 3: not only white people.
- 39:19Speaker 1: Majority of them are black people. And we are now
- 39:23Speaker 1: the farmers are black.
- 39:24Speaker 2: The farmers are not black. I don't say that's good
- 39:26Speaker 2: or bad. But the farmers are not black. And the
- 39:29Speaker 2: people that are being killed in large numbers, and you
- 39:33Speaker 2: see all those grave sites, and those are people that
- 39:36Speaker 2: loved ones going I guess on a Sunday morning.
- 39:38Speaker 1: They told me to pay.
- 39:39Speaker 2: Respect to their loved ones that were killed, their heads
- 39:43Speaker 2: chopped off, they died violently. And you know, I mean,
- 39:49Speaker 2: we're here to talk about it, and you know, we
- 39:51Speaker 2: get involved here. But I will say this that if
- 39:56Speaker 2: the news wasn't fake like NBC, which is fake news,
- 39:59Speaker 2: totally one of the worst, ABC, NBCCBS horrible. But if
- 40:03Speaker 2: they weren't fake news like this jerk that we have here,
- 40:07Speaker 2: if we had real reporters, they'd be covering it.
- 40:10Speaker 1: But the fake news in this country doesn't.
- 40:13Speaker 2: Talk about that. They don't want to talk about it.
- 40:16Speaker 2: But now they have to talk about it, but they won't.
- 40:19Speaker 2: This won't even be a subject they'll have him talking about.
- 40:22Speaker 2: Why did a country give a free think of this?
- 40:27Speaker 2: Why did a country give an airplane to the United
- 40:29Speaker 2: States Air Force? Okay, the United States, not to me,
- 40:33Speaker 2: to the United States Air Force so they could help
- 40:36Speaker 2: us out because we need an air force one until
- 40:39Speaker 2: our set's air Force one it's being built, two of
- 40:42Speaker 2: them being built, but Boeing's a little bit later, unfortunately.
- 40:46Speaker 1: So why did they give us a plane to the
- 40:49Speaker 1: United States Air Force?
- 40:50Speaker 2: That's what that idiot talks about after viewing a thing
- 40:53Speaker 2: where thousands of people it dead.
- 40:55Speaker 1: I'm sorry, I don't have a plane to give you.
- 40:57Speaker 1: I wish I did.
- 41:00Speaker 2: I would tell if your country offered the United States
- 41:02Speaker 2: Air Force supplant, I would take.
- 41:04Speaker 1: It, okay.
- 41:05Speaker 3: But coming back to this issue, which I really would
- 41:09Speaker 3: like us to talk about and talk about it very calmly.
- 41:13Speaker 3: We were taught by Nelson Mandela that whenever there are problems,
- 41:18Speaker 3: people need to sit down around the table and talk
- 41:21Speaker 3: about it. And this is precisely what we would also
- 41:25Speaker 3: like to talk about, including of course trade matters, investment matters,
- 41:29Speaker 3: so the issues that concerned.
- 41:32Speaker 1: You as the United States and your death. Yeah, in
- 41:36Speaker 1: many ways, I mean one one should say you are.
- 41:40Speaker 3: A partner, a partner of South Africa and that you
- 41:43Speaker 3: are raising concerns and these are concerns.
- 41:46Speaker 1: That we are willing to talk to you about. Let
- 41:50Speaker 1: me just add quickly, you know, the.
- 41:55Speaker 3: Communality that were experiencing our country needs quite a lot
- 41:59Speaker 3: of technological capability, and in one of our areas in
- 42:05Speaker 3: South Africa, we're using you as technology which is able
- 42:09Speaker 3: to in many ways identify where shootings are happening and
- 42:14Speaker 3: all that.
- 42:15Speaker 1: And I'd like to talk about that because.
- 42:17Speaker 3: There is support that we can get from you in
- 42:20Speaker 3: the United States to help us deal with all these
- 42:24Speaker 3: active criminality.
- 42:25Speaker 1: And that is what I believe partnership is all about.
- 42:28Speaker 3: And we are here as a partner so that we
- 42:31Speaker 3: can help each other whenever there are challenges. So I'd
- 42:36Speaker 3: like us to discuss it, and of course outside of
- 42:39Speaker 3: the media, so that we sit down and have a
- 42:42Speaker 3: really good discussion that will lead to good outcomes. That
- 42:53Speaker 3: could be a place should you not be satisfied, plait
- 43:01Speaker 3: auh happen?
- 43:03Speaker 2: Well, there are a lot of bad things happening in
- 43:05Speaker 2: you know, many countries, but this in particular, it has
- 43:08Speaker 2: been very very bad, very bad. And because of you know,
- 43:11Speaker 2: we're gonna whole have the whole world watching in another
- 43:15Speaker 2: short period of time because you have the G twenty
- 43:18Speaker 2: and that's a big deal.
- 43:19Speaker 1: And it seees it seems like, yeah, I mean, I
- 43:23Speaker 1: want you to look good. I I don't want you
- 43:25Speaker 1: to look bad cause but you.
- 43:27Speaker 2: We have hundreds of people, thousands of people trying to
- 43:30Speaker 2: come into our country because they feel they're gonna be
- 43:32Speaker 2: killed and their land is gonna be confiscated. And you
- 43:36Speaker 2: do have laws that were passed that gives you the
- 43:38Speaker 2: right to confiscate land for no payment. You can take
- 43:41Speaker 2: away land for no payment. I don't want to clarify that,
- 43:44Speaker 2: cause we have a constitution. Our constitution guarantees and protects
- 43:49Speaker 2: the sanctity of tenure of land ownership, and that constitution
- 43:55Speaker 2: protects all South Africans with regard to land. Oh machine, However,
- 44:01Speaker 2: we do say, because we've got to deal with the past,
- 44:05Speaker 2: the government and s your government also has their ye
- 44:08Speaker 2: to appropriate land for public use.
- 44:11Speaker 1: And you're doing that, and uh what we've never really
- 44:15Speaker 1: got in underwait with that, and we are to be doing.
- 44:18Speaker 2: You're taking you're taking people's land we have and those
- 44:23Speaker 2: people in many cases.
- 44:24Speaker 1: Are being executed.
- 44:26Speaker 2: They're being executed, and they happen to be white, and
- 44:30Speaker 2: most of them happened to be farmers.
- 44:32Speaker 1: And that's a tough situation. I don't know how you
- 44:34Speaker 1: explain that.
- 44:35Speaker 2: How do you explain that they're taking people's land away,
- 44:40Speaker 2: and in many cases those people are being executed, and
- 44:42Speaker 2: in many cases it's not the government that soon, it's people,
- 44:45Speaker 2: you know, that kill them and then take their land
- 44:48Speaker 2: and nothing happens to them. But we have thousands of
- 44:51Speaker 2: people that want to come into our country. They're also
- 44:53Speaker 2: going to Australia in a smaller number, but we have
- 44:57Speaker 2: thousands of people that want to come into our country.
- 45:00Speaker 2: They're white farmers and they feel that they're going to
- 45:03Speaker 2: die in South Africa and it's a bad thing.
- 45:07Speaker 17: Yeah, what.
- 45:12Speaker 1: Can South Africa do? What concessions would you like to
- 45:14Speaker 1: see them beat?
- 45:16Speaker 7: Improve relations with the United States?
- 45:18Speaker 1: That I have a one worker President Romobos afterwards, well,
- 45:21Speaker 1: you know, we just spoke about it.
- 45:22Speaker 2: I got them a very very complex machine, one hundred
- 45:26Speaker 2: and fifty of them. I was asked by the president
- 45:29Speaker 2: if they can help, and I did that. And you know,
- 45:33Speaker 2: I have great feeling for all countries. Look, I deal
- 45:36Speaker 2: with all countries, but I have a great feeling for
- 45:39Speaker 2: South Africa because I have friends. I have a couple
- 45:41Speaker 2: of friends, a few friends here today. I have many
- 45:44Speaker 2: friends from South Africa, but many of those friends are
- 45:49Speaker 2: or they can't go back. I have elons from South Africa.
- 45:52Speaker 2: I don't want to get Elon involved.
- 45:54Speaker 1: That's all I have to do.
- 45:55Speaker 2: Get him into another thing. But what happens to me
- 45:59Speaker 2: from Southeas Africa, this is what Elone wanted. He actually
- 46:03Speaker 2: came here on a different subject, sending rockets to Mars. Okay,
- 46:07Speaker 2: he likes that better. He likes that subject better. But
- 46:10Speaker 2: Elon is from South Africa. I don't want to talk
- 46:13Speaker 2: to him about that.
- 46:14Speaker 1: I don't want to. I don't think it's fair to him.
- 46:16Speaker 1: But I will say that.
- 46:18Speaker 2: People are fleeing South Africa for their own safety. Their
- 46:22Speaker 2: land is being confiscated and in many cases they're being killed.
- 46:26Speaker 2: And that scene of you see how many crosses they have,
- 46:30Speaker 2: those crosses, that's a dead person in every one of them,
- 46:33Speaker 2: and those trucks or cars are paying their respects to
- 46:37Speaker 2: all of those dead people on a Sunday morning. That's
- 46:40Speaker 2: a that's a rough that's a rough thing to explain away.
- 46:45Speaker 2: And the problem we have and the way, you know,
- 46:49Speaker 2: a correct and a fair media exposes things, but we
- 46:54Speaker 2: have a very corrupt media. They won't even report this.
- 46:58Speaker 2: If this were the other way around, it would be
- 47:00Speaker 2: the biggest story. Now, I will say apartheid terrible. That
- 47:04Speaker 2: was the biggest story that was reported all the time.
- 47:07Speaker 2: This is sort of the opposite of apartheid. What's happening
- 47:11Speaker 2: now is never reported. Nobody knows about it. All we
- 47:14Speaker 2: know is we're being inundated with people with white farmers
- 47:18Speaker 2: from South Africa and it's a big problem. Marco Rubio
- 47:23Speaker 2: is telling me he's never seen anything like it, the
- 47:26Speaker 2: numbers of people that want to leave South Africa because
- 47:28Speaker 2: they feel they're going to be dead versus Yes, Brian.
- 47:33Speaker 10: I'm gonna ask me a question.
- 47:35Speaker 1: Seventy farmers in your country are white. If they flee,
- 47:39Speaker 1: do you feel that maybe the e commune could collapse?
- 47:43Speaker 1: You may not have a gap to fill in those
- 47:45Speaker 1: people that we replace those farmers.
- 47:47Speaker 3: You know, I'd like my Minister of Agriculture, who is white,
- 47:53Speaker 3: who comes from opposition party to mine, who has joined
- 47:58Speaker 3: my compliment, my invitation to address this very issue, including
- 48:06Speaker 3: the question that you've just raised.
- 48:08Speaker 1: John, Thank you very much for the President. The President
- 48:11Speaker 1: welcomes to the White House.
- 48:13Speaker 17: I would say we have a rural saving problem in
- 48:15Speaker 17: solid I don't think anyone wants to candy coat that,
- 48:19Speaker 17: and it requires a lot of effort to get on
- 48:21Speaker 17: top of it, it's going to require more policing resources,
- 48:24Speaker 17: it's going to require different strategy to be able to
- 48:26Speaker 17: deal with it. But certainly the majority of South Africa's
- 48:29Speaker 17: commercial and smaller farmers rarely do want to stay in
- 48:33Speaker 17: South Africa and make it work. And I've just come
- 48:36Speaker 17: from the largest agricultural show in the Southern Hemisphere with
- 48:39Speaker 17: organized agriculture and farmers and the majority they want to stay.
- 48:42Speaker 1: But they too, they have a memorial to those who've
- 48:45Speaker 1: died as a result.
- 48:46Speaker 17: Of farm attacks. And as the Minister of Agriculture, it
- 48:50Speaker 17: is something that I'm particularly exercised with my colleagues and
- 48:54Speaker 17: police and my colleagues and the Justice Cluster to start
- 48:57Speaker 17: making farm attacks and stop a priority crime. And it
- 49:02Speaker 17: affects all farmers in South Africa, particularly stock theft has
- 49:05Speaker 17: a disproportionate effect on small black farmers. I also want
- 49:09Speaker 17: to just say this that the two individuals that are
- 49:12Speaker 17: in that video that you've seen are both leaders of
- 49:16Speaker 17: opposition minority parties in South Africa and Kanto sees where
- 49:20Speaker 17: under mister Zuma and the economic freedom fighters under mister Malema. Now,
- 49:24Speaker 17: the reason that my party, the Democratic Alliance, which has
- 49:28Speaker 17: been an opposition party over thirty years, chose to join
- 49:31Speaker 17: hands with mister Ramapausa's party was precise to keep those
- 49:35Speaker 17: people out of power. We cannot have those people sitting
- 49:39Speaker 17: in the Union buildings making decisions. And that is why
- 49:42Speaker 17: after thirty years of us exchanging barbs across the floor
- 49:46Speaker 17: in Parliament and trying to get one over on each other,
- 49:50Speaker 17: we've decided to join hands precisely to keep that lot
- 49:54Speaker 17: out of government. Because the day they get in to
- 49:57Speaker 17: the doors of the Union buildings in South Africa or
- 50:00Speaker 17: control about Parliament, that's what you're gonna see.
- 50:03Speaker 1: And that is why this government working together.
- 50:06Speaker 17: Needs a support of our allies around the world so
- 50:09Speaker 17: that we can strengthen our hand, grow our economy and
- 50:12Speaker 17: shut the door forever on that rebel getting through the
- 50:15Speaker 17: doors of the Union bodies, because then South Africa's future.
- 50:19Speaker 1: So you denounced that type.
- 50:20Speaker 3: Of language in the video that he saw, Oh yes,
- 50:23Speaker 3: the order has done so as government, as my own party,
- 50:27Speaker 3: we are.
- 50:28Speaker 1: Completely opposed to that.
- 50:30Speaker 3: We in nineteen fifty five adopted a document which said
- 50:34Speaker 3: so africcup belongs to a poor would load in it.
- 50:38Speaker 1: But why wouldn't you arrest that man.
- 50:40Speaker 2: That man said kill the white farmers, kill the white farmers,
- 50:44Speaker 2: and then he danced, and he's dancing dancing, and it's
- 50:47Speaker 2: killed the white farmers. I think, I'm not sure, but
- 50:51Speaker 2: I think if somebody got up in environment and started
- 50:53Speaker 2: saying kill a certain group of people that he would
- 50:57Speaker 2: be in he would be arrested very quickly.
- 51:01Speaker 1: That man is going all over South Africa. And that's
- 51:04Speaker 1: not a small party.
- 51:05Speaker 2: That was a stadium that holds one hundred thousand people
- 51:09Speaker 2: and I hardly saw an emptc. That's a lot of people.
- 51:12Speaker 2: That's a lot of representation, and those crosses. We have
- 51:17Speaker 2: dead white people, dead white farmers mostly. And you take
- 51:21Speaker 2: a look at Australia, they're being inundated and we're being
- 51:24Speaker 2: inundated with people that want to get out and their
- 51:28Speaker 2: farmer is valueless. It's valueless and they just want to
- 51:32Speaker 2: get out with their life. And this is a very
- 51:37Speaker 2: serious situation.
- 51:38Speaker 1: And if we had a real news or real press
- 51:41Speaker 1: or media.
- 51:42Speaker 2: We don't have that because they won't talk about this
- 51:45Speaker 2: because there are all guys like that idiot. But if
- 51:47Speaker 2: we had a real press, it would be exposed, and
- 51:50Speaker 2: you know the beauty of exposing it is just like
- 51:52Speaker 2: a cleansing action. When it gets exposed, it'll get fixed.
- 51:56Speaker 2: That's when it will get fixed. But people don't talk
- 51:58Speaker 2: about it. And he was talking about the thousands of
- 52:01Speaker 2: people that are fleeing South Africa right now.
- 52:08Speaker 13: Discuss discussed the US aid the devastation and cots are
- 52:13Speaker 13: having across the African constant.
- 52:15Speaker 2: You know, it's it's devastating and hopefully a lot of
- 52:19Speaker 2: people are going to start spending a lot of money.
- 52:23Speaker 1: And I've talked to other nations.
- 52:25Speaker 2: We want them to chip in and spend money too,
- 52:28Speaker 2: and we've spent a lot and it's a big it's
- 52:31Speaker 2: it's a tremendous problem going on in many countries, a
- 52:34Speaker 2: lot of problems going on. The United States always gets
- 52:39Speaker 2: the request for money. Nobody else helps, as you know,
- 52:42Speaker 2: Europe doesn't help. Europe hasn't given anything. All they do
- 52:46Speaker 2: is sue our companies. You know, they sue Apple and
- 52:49Speaker 2: they sue all of our companies. Apple had to pay
- 52:52Speaker 2: seventeen million dollars.
- 52:53Speaker 1: On a nonsense loss. Very unfair. But we we can
- 52:58Speaker 1: always be there to help.
- 53:01Speaker 8: Shouldn't rise to South African Broadcasting if this up, honor.
- 53:05Speaker 7: He said in the issue is dissolved to go into
- 53:07Speaker 7: the room off of this, you guys, if it is resolved,
- 53:10Speaker 7: it's the.
- 53:10Speaker 1: Potential for the futureship. It's gotta be resolved. It should
- 53:15Speaker 1: be resolved.
- 53:15Speaker 2: It's I mean, it's it's a little bit bad when
- 53:18Speaker 2: you see a stadium with a hundred thousand people in it,
- 53:20Speaker 2: because that means it's more than just.
- 53:23Speaker 1: A little movement. It's a pretty big movement in South Africa.
- 53:26Speaker 1: So it has to be resolved. It'll be the end
- 53:29Speaker 1: of the country of itship moving forward, I hope. So
- 53:33Speaker 1: that's why I'm here. I mean, I'm not here for
- 53:36Speaker 1: my health. I'm here there.
- 53:39Speaker 2: No I'd like to see. I have friends I can
- 53:41Speaker 2: tell you. Ernie Else and Ratief Goosen, they feel so
- 53:45Speaker 2: strongly they wanted to be here on behalf of South Africa,
- 53:48Speaker 2: not on behalf of me. And you know they said,
- 53:51Speaker 2: can we be here for this because they love the country.
- 53:54Speaker 16: Ernie.
- 53:55Speaker 1: Do you guys want to say a couple of words
- 53:56Speaker 1: or I don't.
- 53:57Speaker 2: I hate to put in this. This is tougher than
- 54:00Speaker 2: sinking to three foot and they've shaken many three foot.
- 54:09Speaker 10: Thank you for President, and thanks for the honor of
- 54:12Speaker 10: being here. We've known each other long time, we have spoken.
- 54:20Speaker 10: You know, we proud South Africa. I still have my
- 54:22Speaker 10: South Africa passport. We traveled with this passport, you know,
- 54:27Speaker 10: and I my visa yet, so you know, but we
- 54:32Speaker 10: want to see things get better in our home country.
- 54:35Speaker 10: And that's the bottom line. It's been thirty five years
- 54:40Speaker 10: since the transition. President ram Opposa was right in the
- 54:43Speaker 10: middle of the transition time in nineteen ninety and before that,
- 54:51Speaker 10: so it's been thirty five years of anti government and
- 54:57Speaker 10: I know there's a there's a lot of anger, you know, uh.
- 55:00Speaker 1: Through the transition.
- 55:01Speaker 10: There's also a lot of stuff happening in the apartheid days.
- 55:05Speaker 10: You know, we grew up in the apartheid year.
- 55:11Speaker 1: But I don't think two wrongs makes a right.
- 55:13Speaker 10: You know, President Mandela when he came out of prison
- 55:18Speaker 10: for all that time, didn't come out with hatred, you know,
- 55:23Speaker 10: and really unified our our nation and sport. You know,
- 55:29Speaker 10: we won Therectly World Cup in the ninety five four time,
- 55:33Speaker 10: we won the African Nations Cup, uh soccer. You know,
- 55:39Speaker 10: we won some majors as golfers and so forth. So
- 55:44Speaker 10: what I'm trying to say is, you know, we it.
- 55:46Speaker 10: This has been a long time coming. That's why we
- 55:50Speaker 10: really wanted to meet you with the administration and see
- 55:54Speaker 10: our way forward, cause we still want to see our
- 55:58Speaker 10: country flourish.
- 55:59Speaker 1: You know, we got some great things going on. Business
- 56:01Speaker 1: is getting.
- 56:02Speaker 10: Involved with the government, farming, farmers are getting involved in
- 56:08Speaker 10: local municipalities. It's trying to rebuild some of the infrastructure
- 56:12Speaker 10: that's been the decaying for a long time. So there's
- 56:16Speaker 10: a lot of UH co existence going on, and and
- 56:21Speaker 10: and and help from UH a lot of areas.
- 56:24Speaker 1: But we need, I feel, we need the US to
- 56:29Speaker 1: push this thing through.
- 56:32Speaker 10: We've got a great ally if we can have the US.
- 56:35Speaker 10: It's always been an ally of of South Africa for
- 56:38Speaker 10: a very long time, even in the days of the
- 56:41Speaker 10: of the war.
- 56:42Speaker 1: You know up in Angota.
- 56:44Speaker 6: You know, you guys helped us, so.
- 56:47Speaker 1: Very important for us to to have your support.
- 56:50Speaker 10: And you know, get the change we need.
- 56:54Speaker 1: Where did you do that?
- 57:00Speaker 2: You might have done that even better than he plays gold,
- 57:03Speaker 2: which is almost impossible.
- 57:07Speaker 6: The president, if you had to.
- 57:10Speaker 18: Wind all of those types properly, you will see I'm
- 57:15Speaker 18: the biggest target of that trouble rouser number one for
- 57:20Speaker 18: over ten years, mister Monday.
- 57:23Speaker 6: In fact, the first time I met him, he will
- 57:26Speaker 6: send the youth league with that gentleman. And look how
- 57:31Speaker 6: he's changed. Right, we have too many deaths.
- 57:36Speaker 1: But it's across the boat.
- 57:38Speaker 6: It's not only white farmers.
- 57:41Speaker 1: It's across the board.
- 57:42Speaker 18: We need technological help. We need starlink at every little
- 57:48Speaker 18: police station.
- 57:49Speaker 6: We need drones.
- 57:52Speaker 18: I actually got drones donated for the Peace Parks to
- 57:57Speaker 18: stop elephant and lot you approaching, And he's pretty accessor
- 58:03Speaker 18: stopped the I quotation because he said the United States.
- 58:07Speaker 6: Would spy on us.
- 58:09Speaker 18: I mean, the US basics is the ridiculum. So if
- 58:14Speaker 18: we can, if you can help us. Remember, sir, you
- 58:18Speaker 18: and I lived in New York in the seventies. We
- 58:21Speaker 18: never thought New York could be what it became. Two commissioners,
- 58:26Speaker 18: a tough mayor. We need your help to stop this
- 58:31Speaker 18: awful kidding. But it's across the board. And he's right
- 58:35Speaker 18: now building at Clayter House in George. I'm building three
- 58:39Speaker 18: cottages for my grandchildren on a farm outside Traffernette.
- 58:45Speaker 6: I often go to bed with outlocking the door.
- 58:48Speaker 1: And we have a.
- 58:49Speaker 18: Serious problem with illegal aiment. We stream across the border.
- 58:55Speaker 18: And if you really look at our statistics a lot
- 58:59Speaker 18: of these murders. Firstly, it's unemployment and illegal ideas. And
- 59:07Speaker 18: then I met Vice President in Vance many years ago
- 59:12Speaker 18: that Charlie Rose shown My wife loved people, and she
- 59:19Speaker 18: reminded me this morning that you emphasized the devastation that
- 59:25Speaker 18: occurs when big companies leave talents and cities and there's
- 59:32Speaker 18: a culture of dependency that develops, and I remember you
- 59:36Speaker 18: discussing it.
- 59:38Speaker 6: Now that's our problem.
- 59:40Speaker 18: If we don't get our economy to grow, the culture
- 59:43Speaker 18: of dependency and the lawlessness will increase. I've forget been
- 59:48Speaker 18: against the part at all my life, and I'm their
- 59:52Speaker 18: number one target. Please just google my name and Maremma.
- 59:58Speaker 6: You'll see it.
- 59:58Speaker 18: So he marched on the crime is the crime is terrible, sir,
- 1:00:05Speaker 18: But mister Steneration won't admit to it.
- 1:00:08Speaker 6: But he runs the Western Cape where I live. One
- 1:00:11Speaker 6: of the biggest murder right is in the cap Flat gangs.
- 1:00:17Speaker 6: We've got gang warfare.
- 1:00:19Speaker 18: Like your m Thity three. What were these guys. We've
- 1:00:23Speaker 18: got equivalents there. But we need your help, sir, and
- 1:00:28Speaker 18: we need e lot of technology.
- 1:00:31Speaker 3: Well, one of the real areas of support is really
- 1:00:35Speaker 3: an investment, and we've got to grow our economy because
- 1:00:39Speaker 3: through growing the economy, we're then able to create more
- 1:00:42Speaker 3: jobs because crime really thrives where there is inequality and unemployment,
- 1:00:51Speaker 3: and that is one of the reasons that has brought
- 1:00:54Speaker 3: us here to improve our investment relations, our trade relations
- 1:01:00Speaker 3: so that we can preserve the number of jobs that
- 1:01:05Speaker 3: your companies have created in South Africa by virtue of
- 1:01:08Speaker 3: what we export to you.
- 1:01:10Speaker 1: We are able to create.
- 1:01:12Speaker 3: Up to five hundred thousand jobs in the auto industry,
- 1:01:15Speaker 3: in the agricultural industry, and a number of other industries
- 1:01:20Speaker 3: mining where we export things to you. And we also
- 1:01:24Speaker 3: know that as South African companies invest here, you are
- 1:01:27Speaker 3: also able to create jobs, so it's a mutually beneficial relationship.
- 1:01:32Speaker 3: So our main, main, real reason for being here is
- 1:01:37Speaker 3: to foster trade and investment so that we are able
- 1:01:42Speaker 3: to grow our economy with your support, and so that
- 1:01:46Speaker 3: we're also able to address all these societal problems because
- 1:01:51Speaker 3: criminality thrives when people are unemployed, when they have no
- 1:01:55Speaker 3: other hope to eke out a living. So that is
- 1:01:58Speaker 3: what we need to resolve and will support your partnership
- 1:02:03Speaker 3: with us. Is what isn't really going to give us
- 1:02:06Speaker 3: a strong, strong capability to move forward.
- 1:02:12Speaker 2: Excuse me, do you have anything to say? I mean,
- 1:02:14Speaker 2: I don't want to leave you. You know, the guy
- 1:02:17Speaker 2: won three or four majors.
- 1:02:19Speaker 1: Three or four. No, I need to that's a lot,
- 1:02:23Speaker 1: by the way, there is a lot, a lot of tournaments.
- 1:02:26Speaker 1: You want you do you have anything to say?
- 1:02:28Speaker 5: Yeah, thank you for president President from a pos I
- 1:02:31Speaker 5: grew up in an area in South Africa that is.
- 1:02:34Speaker 1: A farmland area, Polaguan, and there's some.
- 1:02:39Speaker 5: Issues up there.
- 1:02:40Speaker 1: Obviously.
- 1:02:41Speaker 5: My dad was a proper develop as well as a
- 1:02:43Speaker 5: part time farmer. And yeah, some of these buddy farmers
- 1:02:48Speaker 5: got killed. The farm is still going, my brother's running,
- 1:02:53Speaker 5: but it's a constant battle with farms trying to get
- 1:02:56Speaker 5: They're trying to burn the farms down to chase your
- 1:03:00Speaker 5: So it is it is a concern to try and
- 1:03:03Speaker 5: make a living as a farmer. And at the end
- 1:03:05Speaker 5: they you know, without farmers, there's no food on a plate.
- 1:03:09Speaker 1: So we need we meet the farmers. He wouldn't do it,
- 1:03:12Speaker 1: He wouldn't even want to do what you're doing. They
- 1:03:14Speaker 1: love farming, they don't want to leave it. It's a struggle.
- 1:03:18Speaker 10: Yeah, and you know foo.
- 1:03:20Speaker 5: Food and fresh water is the most important thing in life,
- 1:03:22Speaker 5: you know about those two things.
- 1:03:24Speaker 1: You got toppy. How is the water there?
- 1:03:27Speaker 6: The water is great, obviously.
- 1:03:31Speaker 5: All the water comes out of the warehole, out of
- 1:03:33Speaker 5: ground for us that they but yeah, it is a
- 1:03:36Speaker 5: battle to get the water out sometimes when all the
- 1:03:39Speaker 5: equipment gets stolen all the time that you're trying to.
- 1:03:41Speaker 1: Get sort is your family and your brother do they
- 1:03:43Speaker 1: feel safe on the farm.
- 1:03:46Speaker 5: They left behind electric fences, you know, try and be
- 1:03:49Speaker 5: at night safe, but it is it is constant whenever
- 1:03:54Speaker 5: you leave that that something could happen. And it's about
- 1:04:01Speaker 5: both her ms been attacked in their houses.
- 1:04:03Speaker 6: My mom's been attacked in their.
- 1:04:05Speaker 1: House when she was iding.
- 1:04:06Speaker 5: So it is it is uh uh difficult, but you know,
- 1:04:11Speaker 5: the guys live a great life despite everything going on.
- 1:04:15Speaker 3: Uh some point, I've brought along the president of the
- 1:04:23Speaker 3: largest trade union in our country, sayings or loose because
- 1:04:28Speaker 3: she leads many many workers, uh more than one million
- 1:04:32Speaker 3: one and our.
- 1:04:33Speaker 1: Two million workers.
- 1:04:34Speaker 3: And maybe we should give very chance to say something
- 1:04:37Speaker 3: because she's come all the way uh to join us.
- 1:04:40Speaker 6: I think you very much?
- 1:04:41Speaker 14: Uh?
- 1:04:41Speaker 11: Is the president trumbles and president for extending the invitation
- 1:04:46Speaker 11: to US as organized labor, and I must say that
- 1:04:49Speaker 11: we are here to support the the the the initiative
- 1:04:54Speaker 11: that is made by our our government with UH business
- 1:04:58Speaker 11: of course is organized LIB. We've been coming to Washington
- 1:05:01Speaker 11: on their goal trade relations in the previous regime and
- 1:05:08Speaker 11: I think at the center of it all for me,
- 1:05:11Speaker 11: it is exactly what mister Rupette have said, the importance
- 1:05:15Speaker 11: of us growing the economy. We have always emphasized when
- 1:05:19Speaker 11: we were here and kept on coming and negotiating on
- 1:05:22Speaker 11: a pover that the six hundred US companies that are
- 1:05:26Speaker 11: based in South Africa, as you said, President Drama Pasta,
- 1:05:29Speaker 11: five hundred thousand jobs will be wiped out. We need
- 1:05:32Speaker 11: more foreign direct investment in our country. We are not
- 1:05:37Speaker 11: just talking about those that will lose employment, but we're
- 1:05:39Speaker 11: talking about over forty percent of people that are unemployed
- 1:05:43Speaker 11: that have we have no hope of ever finding job.
- 1:05:47Speaker 11: And we think that correctly as they have said that
- 1:05:50Speaker 11: we need to deg the issue of poor US board
- 1:05:52Speaker 11: US in our country so that everyone that comes in
- 1:05:55Speaker 11: is documented. We also need to and I would have
- 1:06:00Speaker 11: love thought that the Minister will address the issue of
- 1:06:03Speaker 11: land expropriation and how the police works in South Africa. Recently, President,
- 1:06:08Speaker 11: as you were preparing to come here on the US
- 1:06:12Speaker 11: in I think it was on Nada, there was handover
- 1:06:16Speaker 11: of farms and white farmers were saying, we are donating
- 1:06:23Speaker 11: the land. But also there's a willing by a willing
- 1:06:26Speaker 11: seller in South Africa, so there is no expropriation without compensation,
- 1:06:34Speaker 11: but it is a willing by a willing seller, and
- 1:06:36Speaker 11: that white farmer was even saying that they the government
- 1:06:41Speaker 11: is even paying more in buying the land than what
- 1:06:45Speaker 11: the land is worth off. And I think those are
- 1:06:48Speaker 11: the realities President, that we must say that we need
- 1:06:52Speaker 11: to address, of course, but also the importance of agriculture.
- 1:06:56Speaker 1: Lead to our goal.
- 1:06:58Speaker 11: People rely on the and I think as a retief
- 1:07:01Speaker 11: upset for for for survival and and and living.
- 1:07:05Speaker 1: But lastly for me, President, is also the issue of
- 1:07:09Speaker 1: the crimes that distance.
- 1:07:11Speaker 11: There is no doubt about it that we are a
- 1:07:15Speaker 11: violent nation, you know, for a number of reasons, and
- 1:07:18Speaker 11: we're not condoning anything. But also if you go into
- 1:07:22Speaker 11: the rural areas where black majority are, you would see
- 1:07:28Speaker 11: women elderly being raped, being killed, being met and these
- 1:07:33Speaker 11: are black elderly women that would be found throat slits,
- 1:07:39Speaker 11: raped multiple times and all of that and the problem
- 1:07:43Speaker 11: in South Africa. It is not necessarily about.
- 1:07:45Speaker 1: Race, but it is about crime.
- 1:07:47Speaker 11: And we think that we are here to say, how
- 1:07:50Speaker 11: do we both nations work together to reset, to really
- 1:07:56Speaker 11: talk about investment, but also help us in how we
- 1:08:00Speaker 11: can have the technology and everything that is needed. The
- 1:08:03Speaker 11: president to to really address the the the the the
- 1:08:06Speaker 11: the liberals of crime that we had in our country.
- 1:08:09Speaker 1: Did the rank penside is a very slong word. I'm
- 1:08:16Speaker 1: wondering if you meet up your mind as to whether
- 1:08:18Speaker 1: you believe thatenocide is a crime. So the hoover you
- 1:08:21Speaker 1: s thousand, if you tell me in your mind why
- 1:08:23Speaker 1: by president I'm upo secures.
- 1:08:25Speaker 2: Pays Well, I haven't made up my mind. I hate
- 1:08:28Speaker 2: to see it, uh from the same point of South Africa.
- 1:08:31Speaker 2: But also you know, I'm trying to save lives. I'm
- 1:08:33Speaker 2: working with Russia and Ukraine.
- 1:08:35Speaker 1: I don't have to do that. It's not our war
- 1:08:37Speaker 1: was started by other people.
- 1:08:40Speaker 2: UH, something belonged by our past administration and we would
- 1:08:43Speaker 2: have never happened if I were president. But I'm trying
- 1:08:45Speaker 2: to save lives and no matter where uh Rwanda, I
- 1:08:50Speaker 2: have nothing to do with Rwanda and the Congo. But
- 1:08:53Speaker 2: I felt I had a very talented person in this
- 1:08:56Speaker 2: administration and I sent him there and he d an
- 1:09:00Speaker 2: unbelievable job.
- 1:09:01Speaker 7: I think.
- 1:09:01Speaker 2: I mean, we're going to find out, but he's done
- 1:09:04Speaker 2: the hardest part of the job. It should it should
- 1:09:06Speaker 2: happen if I can save lives, I want to save
- 1:09:09Speaker 2: the lives. If it's in Africa, that's great, If it's
- 1:09:11Speaker 2: in Europe, if it's wherever it may be. And it's
- 1:09:15Speaker 2: a very small investment to do compared to what the
- 1:09:19Speaker 2: consequences are, so I hope we can do something. Look,
- 1:09:24Speaker 2: I have so many friends these two men. Have great
- 1:09:26Speaker 2: admiration for them because I know what they do for
- 1:09:28Speaker 2: a living, and that's a very hard living. Going from
- 1:09:32Speaker 2: city to city, from country to country and hitting a
- 1:09:36Speaker 2: ball three hundred and fifty yards like they do and
- 1:09:41Speaker 2: getting the ball in the hall is a very tough
- 1:09:43Speaker 2: with lots of people watching, right, it's a very tough living.
- 1:09:48Speaker 2: You know, they're champions. I respect champions, and I respect
- 1:09:52Speaker 2: very much, and I think the country is very lucky.
- 1:09:54Speaker 2: They really wanted to be here.
- 1:09:56Speaker 6: They could be.
- 1:09:56Speaker 1: Elsewhere, they could be on a beautiful fairway someplace and
- 1:10:00Speaker 1: to be here from Africa in South Africa. How important
- 1:10:11Speaker 1: is it for the United States to be at l
- 1:10:14Speaker 1: G twenty, summits in.
- 1:10:17Speaker 6: Relationship the countries you've just heard or what has been
- 1:10:21Speaker 6: said to you?
- 1:10:22Speaker 1: Just now?
- 1:10:23Speaker 6: Are you coming and.
- 1:10:24Speaker 2: Are you preparings of count So without the United States,
- 1:10:27Speaker 2: the G twenty, just like the G seven used to
- 1:10:30Speaker 2: be the G eight, but brilliantly they threw Russia out.
- 1:10:33Speaker 1: Would have been a lot better if Russia was in.
- 1:10:35Speaker 2: You know, a lot of people would say, oh that
- 1:10:36Speaker 2: so not because if Russia was in, you probably wouldn't
- 1:10:39Speaker 2: have this.
- 1:10:39Speaker 1: War, and if you had a different president, you wouldn't
- 1:10:42Speaker 1: have the war either. But we have a G seven.
- 1:10:45Speaker 1: It's important that the United States is at both of them.
- 1:10:48Speaker 1: I think without the United States it's aid I I
- 1:10:51Speaker 1: really believe it's not very important. It's not it's not
- 1:10:54Speaker 1: the same meaning.
- 1:10:58Speaker 3: As I said to President Trump, the US really originated
- 1:11:02Speaker 3: the G twenty, and it's important that the United States
- 1:11:08Speaker 3: continues to play a key role in the G twenty.
- 1:11:12Speaker 3: And we are privileged to be the president of the
- 1:11:16Speaker 3: G twenty. But we are even overjoined that we are
- 1:11:19Speaker 3: going to hand over to the United States, where the originators,
- 1:11:24Speaker 3: and for that reason, I expect the United States to
- 1:11:28Speaker 3: continue play the leadership role in the G twenty together
- 1:11:32Speaker 3: with other countries. And I've said when I initially spoke
- 1:11:37Speaker 3: to President Trump on the phone, I wanted to come
- 1:11:40Speaker 3: to South Africa for a state visit and.
- 1:11:42Speaker 1: I also wanted to come and participate in the G twenty.
- 1:11:47Speaker 3: And I want to gladly hand over to President Trump
- 1:11:51Speaker 3: to take the leadership of the G twenty forward in November.
- 1:11:55Speaker 1: Thank you, thank you, thank you.
- 1:12:00Speaker 7: I don't like to take one.
- 1:12:01Speaker 1: You don't want to leave. You don't us.
- 1:12:04Speaker 19: So everybody think they may take you, they take youthing
- 1:12:15Speaker 19: you here, guys, thank you.
- 1:12:21Speaker 5: Right years.
- 1:12:28Speaker 1: Both we didn't think them out
- 1:12:33Speaker 3: O my ca
