Ilungu leNkongolo eMelika, uAndy Ogles, umemelele ukuba uMzantsi Afrika ugxothwe kwiAfrican Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA), ngelithi eli lizwe “liyabacaphukela abelungu” kwaye “liyabathanda abanqolobi.”
Iintetho zikaOgles zilandela iintetho ebezisandula ukwenziwa nguMongameli waseMelika uDonald Trump, nalapho achaze uMzantsi Afrika “njengendawo embi onokuba kuyo ngoku” etyhola eli lizwe ngokuhlutha umhlaba kumafama amhlophe.
UTrump ukwabhengeze ukupheliswa koncedo lwaseMelika eMzantsi Afrika, ecaphula amabango angenabungqina bokuba urhulumente woMzantsi Afrika utshutshisa abantu abamhlophe. Ingxelo yakhe iza phakathi kwengxwabangxwaba engqonge ityala elavulwa nguMzantsi Afrika lokubulawa kwabantu ngakuSirayeli kwiNkundla yeHlabathi yezoBulungisa (ICJ).
Imibutho efana neAfriForum kunye neSolidarity Movement, kunye nesigwili esazalelwa eMzantsi Afrika uElon Musk, baye baqinisa amabango okuba abantu abamhlophe baseMzantsi Afrika bajongene nocalucalulo nobundlobongela – into ethe yakholelwa neyakxaswa nguTrump.
Kwinto yamva nje ebhalwe kwi-app yakhe, iqonga leTruth Social, uTrump utyhole uMzantsi Afrika ngokuhlutha umhlaba kwaye wafunga ukuba uyakuyimisa yonke inkxaso mali.
"UMzantsi Afrika uphethe kakubi amafama ekudala bepha kwela lizwe. Bohlutha umhlaba wabo neefama zabo. Yindawo embi onokuba kuyo ngoku, kwaye simisa yonke inkxaso mali," utshilo uTrump.
UMongameli waseMelika waphinda wathembisa ngokukhawulezisa iinkqubo zokufumana ubumi baseMelika kumafama aseMzantsi Afrika afuna ukufudukela kwela lizwe ngenxa yezizathu zokhuseleko.
UOgles ulilungu lombutho weRepublican Party kunye nomxhasi wexesha elide kaTrump. Ebethelela iintetho zikaTrump, uOgles ubhongoze ukuba uMzantsi Afrika ugxothwe kwiAGOA.
"UMzantsi Afrika uyabacaphukela abelungu, uyabathanda abanqolobi, kwaye unamakomanisi. Lixesha lokuba kurhoxiswe amandla oMzantsi Afrika wokurhweba ngaphandle kwerhafu ngokusebenzisa iAGOA," utshilo uOgles.
I-AGOA yamiselwa ngo2000 kwaye inika amazwe aseAfrika afanelekileyo ukufikelela simahla kwiimalike zaseMelika ngeempahla ezithile.
