The discredited ‘white genocide’ narrative in South Africa has been systematically promoted by US conservative networks, gaining traction in influential political and media circles.

This misinformation fuels fear and division within the US, amplified by coordinated media and political actors seeking electoral advantage.

In South Africa, the campaign distorts complex social realities and weakens public trust in institutions addressing violence and inequality.

South Africa’s possible exclusion from the 2026 G20 Summit highlights increasing foreign interference and the gradual erosion of its sovereignty.

Ramaphosa: SACP members must recuse themselves from ANC election strategy meetings

Key FactsSACP Members Must Withdraw from ANC Election Discussions

4 days ago · Reading time: ~45 sec.
Summary created with AI assistance · Source: mg.co.za

The ANC’s national council resolved that members affiliated with the SACP should recuse themselves from election strategy meetings.

The SACP confirmed its plan to contest the 2026 local government elections independently from the ANC.

President Ramaphosa highlighted the strategic and technical implications this decision holds for the alliance and the national democratic revolution.

Alliance leaders are urged to urgently develop a unified strategy to maintain cohesion and avoid further division.

All we are saying is that as we continue to engage, particularly on our strategies and tactics for running the elections, they should recuse themselves.
— President Cyril Ramaphosa made this statement during closing remarks after the ANC's national general council meeting.
