Показать описание
Under the new US administration, South Africa and the United States economic relation is in jeopardy. In recent times, Donald Trump has shown alot of rejection towards countries associated with BRICS, including our beloved country, South Africa.
Donald Trump threatens South Africa.
Amidst the anti BRICS 100% tarrif threat, Donald Trump recently threatened to kick South Africa out of lucrative trade arrangements, should the government not change its position on Russia, Iran and Israel.
South africa is heavily tied to the BRICS group which holds alot of benefit to the country such as defence and a BRICS currency that is free from the Dollar.
South africa has been on the forefront of peacemaking and having healthy international relations with different countries, however, Donald Trump has made it clear that South africa cannot play on both sides anymore.
Should South africa keep America and ditch BRICS? Let us know in the comments section.
If Donald Trump kicks South Africa out of lucrative trade arrangements, most at risk would be South Africa’s duty-free exports to the U.S. of items such as cars and citrus fruit under the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA) — and with it the potential loss of tens of thousands of African jobs. South Africa is likely to be under intense scrutiny from the incoming administration.
Times are not the same, things have changed in recent years and people are starting to see things differently, especially post COVID-19.
Is South Africa stronger with NATO or BRICS?

Does South africa need Donald Trump and America? Is South Africa stronger with NATO or BRICS?
BRICS offers South Africa greater economic and diplomatic leverage, especially among emerging markets and developing countries. It enhances South Africa's voice in the Global South and allows for strategic alliances with non-Western powers.
NATO, if South Africa were a member, would primarily boost its military strength and security, aligning it with Western powers but potentially complicating its relationships with other emerging powers.
Overall, South Africa may be "stronger" in terms of influence, economic development, and geopolitical positioning within BRICS, given its role as the only African member and its emphasis on non-alignment and promoting the interests of the Global South. However, NATO could offer security benefits if the country shifted its alignment towards Western defense structures.
Here'what the people had to say.
In consequence, Trump’s tweet defends the dollar against a non-existent adversary. But his attempt to bully the BRICS into submission could bring that adversary to life—the greater the risks of dependence on the dollar, the more that countries will attempt to seek alternative forms of payment. Trump’s tilting at windmill threat will underscore that the rest of the world cannot look at the United States as a reliable and trustworthy partner, thus enhancing the chances that countries will keep their distance from America and seek to play off geopolitical rivals.
Trump to Isolate South Africa's Ramaphosa Over Ties with Russia, China? | Firstpost Africa
According to US media reports, key Republicans are already pressing the incoming Donald Trump administration to kick South Africa out of lucrative trade arrangements. This is if the South African government does not change its position on Russia, China, Iran, and Israel. South Africa is likely to be under intense scrutiny by the Trump administration. Some of the high-ranking Republicans have already shared their concerns over how Pretoria is leaning away from Washington's positions in a number of ways. The most at-risk trade with the US is under the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA). As per last year's data, South Africa has been the top beneficiary with around $3.6 billion worth of exports mostly vehicles and parts, fruits, precious metals, and chemicals. However, the Trump rule could affect US-South Africa trade under AGOA. Watch for more.
