US expels ‘race-baiting’ South African ambassador as relationship reaches ‘lowest point’

America has expelled South Africa’s ambassador, calling the envoy a “race-baiting politician” who hates America and Donald Trump.

Marco Rubio, the US Secretary of State, said Ebrahim Rasool was no longer welcome, as relations between Washington and South Africa continued to plummet.

The Trump administration has already singled the country out for sanctions and accused it of being anti-white and anti-American.

One former American ambassador to South Africa said the latest spat had now seen relations fall to their lowest point yet.

Mr Rubio announced on social media platform X that: “South Africa’s Ambassador to the United States is no longer welcome in our great country.

“We have nothing to discuss with him and so he is considered persona non grata.”
