SA-Russia relationship: South Africa is handcuffed to a losing horse - Dr Colin P. Clarke

South Africa is betting on a losing horse with its backing of Russia - and will face consequences for a foreign policy that “accommodates Moscow and other rogue regimes”. This warning comes from Dr. Colin P. Clarke, the Director of Research at the Soufan Group, a global intelligence and security consultancy based in New York. He speaks to BizNews about the likely consequences of a continued SA-Russia “alliance”; the African National Congress (ANC) government’s failure to combat terror financing on its soil; a possible threat of misinformation leading to violence around next year’s national elections; and the “commercial and monetary” advantages of repairing its relationship with the US.Your early morning brew of the BizNews Insider keeps you up to speed with the content that matters.
