[Rwanda Forum] South Africa vows to pursue Israel genocide case despite Trump pressure


South Africa's foreign minister has vowed to push ahead with its genocide case against Israel at the International Court of Justice despite an executive order signed by Donald Trump punishing the country for its "aggressive" position towards the US ally. There was "no chance" of South Africa withdrawing the ICJ case despite Trump's threats, Ronald Lamola told the Financial Times. "Standing by our principles sometimes has consequences, but we remain firm that this is important for the world, and the rule of law," he said in an interview.
