EFF slams US Ambassador's remarks, calls for his removal

JOHANNESBURG - The EFF is calling for US Ambassador Brent Bozell to be expelled and declared persona non grata.

It follows his remarks at a BizNews conference.

Bozell said the White House was growing frustrated at Pretoria's refusal to give in to US demands. They include ending expropriation and other transformation laws.

It's also demanding the country be non-aligned, which may mean leaving groupings like BRICS.

Bozell also said he doesn't care what the courts say and that Kill the Boer is hate speech.

The EFF says Bozell and the Trump administration can not dictate domestic and foreign policy.

The party says the remarks are an insult to the President, the legislature and the judiciary.
