'TO SAY SA SOLD ARMS MISREPRESENTS OUR COUNTRY AND GOVERNMENT,' - NALEDI PANDOR

South Africa’s policy of non-alignment has been brought into question following
allegations that we supplied ammunition to Russia.

Bongani Bingwa speaks to Dr Naledi Pandor, Minister of International Relations
and Cooperation

The United States Ambassador to South Africa Reuben Brigety recently claimed
that South Africa supplied arms and ammunition to Russia via the Lady R ship
that was docked in Simon’s Town naval base last December.

The Presidency and the Department of International Relations and Cooperation
(Dirco) condemned the statements made by the ambassador.

Dr Pandor tells Bongani Bingwa that she had a meeting with the ambassador where
she expressed government's displeasure.

She says the US ambassador should have followed the proper diplomatic channels
if he was concerned and wanted to make these allegations.

> This is my first experience of an ambassador calling a press conference and
> then making very serious allegations in a most wild and inappropriate manor. I
> must say I was shocked.
> 
> Naledi Pandor, Minister of International Relations and Cooperation

She says Brigety has since apologised for the manor in which he made the
allegations.




With regards to the allegations, she says that the South African government does
not sell arms, adding that arms are sold by private sector defence companies,
and there is a legal procedure and arms control process that must be followed.

> To go to the public and say South Africa sold arms is actually totally
> misrepresenting our country and the government.
> 
> Naledi Pandor, Minister of International Relations and Cooperation

> If indeed the ambassador’s allegation is true, then someone has committed a
> crime.
> 
> Naledi Pandor, Minister of International Relations and Cooperation

She adds that she does not have any more information on this than what has been
made public, but she welcomes the announcement of an investigation.

> I hope it will happen very speedily and should anybody have committed a crime
> then they must be brought to book.
> 
> Naledi Pandor, Minister of International Relations and Cooperation
