Relations between the U.S. and South Africa frayed last week, when U.S. Ambassador Reuben Brigety accused Pretoria of running guns for Russia via a mystery.
No evidence to support this claim was provided and Brigety has apparently apologised after having been summoned by International Relations and Cooperation Minister Naledi Pandor.
Earlier this month, the U.S. ambassador to South Africa, Reuben Brigety, alleged that the South African government delivered arms and ammunition to Russia, despite sanctions currently in place against Moscow.
