the time is up the, the, the hello. i'm the middle of january tuned into modus operandi. summer of 2023 was all eyes on africa between the massive brick summit which saw the admission of new members and the application of dozens more to join the block to the multiple crews that broke out in former french colonies. we'll take a birds eye view into the de facto leader of the consummate south africa. all right, let's get into the m o the

. it was all eyes on south africa this summer. as the brick summit was the invite, but everyone in diplomatic circles wanted to receive, had bought him or prudent attended in person. this would have been the 2nd time he'd have seen around the post address this year alone. the war cannot go on forever for was have to be settled and come to an end at some stage. and we are here to communicate a very clear message that we would like this will to be and that putting around my post that spart as some describe it earlier in the summer, when an african delegation went to st. petersburg in june to present their ideas on a peace plan for moscow and kids. now, speculation looming on whether or not putting what attend in person due to that questionable international criminal court arrest warrant that was issued south

africa. the host nation is a signatory to the i, c. c. they had signaled that they would not abide by the agreement should vladimir prudent attend, but put in joined by video link instead to avoid making this summit about himself and focus more on the mission of the group. meanwhile, at home, present around the post that is facing an uphill battle to remain in power as he and the amc party began to lose popularity. joining us to discuss all of this, this is clinton ends all a he is a journalist and political analyst and commentator at african stream. he is joining us now from nairobi, kenya, thank you for joining us, clinton. so 1st, let's discuss the brick summit. this year was posted by south africa. there were a lot of controversies surrounding the summit. so let's 1st start with that rumor that french president, a manual ma crone was handling it,

wanting an invite to the summit. now france is not a member state, was this a deliberate move by my calling to sort of put run the posts in this awkward position and obviously my cronin didn't get that invite. so was that the right move on south africa's part, especially now given that the, the recent who went to a crew to todd and other african states who were former french colonies a yes, i agree. i think this nancy was an attempt to post the position by any means, like to say, wow, fast is not able to be so much, but i think that i did it and i must go. i think gift you shouldn't have been very strange, but i think what makes it is and you said i'm on the demand that it made for my crow to to attend the brakes on it. you said, put, you should know that. and so this is stage mostly done in that puts you have to do

right to the rush is the new movies and friends has what direction? yes. by now to that to the front switch, which i hate instead of making 2 months, which is very strange. it's like your friend that uh, i know she's have good. you're waiting waiting. i'm just on a guess. it's much easier to, to the guess this, but what are the conditions? you bet. why don't their cousins? we think by the way, should know that tent sites, the things as a guest, you in the sugar to be there. you should, this doesn't make too much just avoid it. well, and the size of the thing that i would, what did you should get? the description should be more in depth watkins. now you see this out of us from the physical. yeah. then you have an a t should pull it back instead of just waiting to say, just when you finding acceptable that i do come you didn't know why she'd be joining too much to say i can come to a, b, c, d. i think it's like a little above,

i just wasn't sure if that's true. i didn't want to do that. he just wanted to find a mentor to but the maintenance i need. ready to move onto the survey, i need to just throwing a spot in the subject. so what to see now that i am getting assigned mutual this might be interested in, when should i be looking at issues that are going to be discussed with you? some of the numbers fractions make easy. so the 1st interest into joining briggs items, guys that i wanted to discuss at the summit. but unfortunately, because of this drama, i just thought i'm doing the attendance of people i want to attend. the attendance of putting out with us i'll ask is going to try at least you have, i think checking the focus away from the issues, the issues that we have to get done. and so now we have to focus on the flip. i need to be in, so yeah, so dividing that no,

i mean i definitely just want mine has i'm my living with the major so you've had purchased a thing. yeah. so my goodness, really it was the much a situation which was already too much. i think works too so. so all for yeah, i know it's not just korean, it's present, which is great. what did you, what is the venture? impose your stories sep wednesday, present to have a question. i need to see what that tends to be. attentive. that was just additions, that's what we've decided china. so making all these from has taken that we focus on other issues around to see i just, i'm going to see the introduction of that brief gardens. i'm going to see more decided to this plan election that is going to take so i can do that, munitions that, that now interesting into this was in pushing to the patient. that's probably your watch. never to be discussed. but i've seen that for the waste moved from from the

beginning. they don't want to see we succeed, quotes and switch to that one. so somebody said that was fine with to. so south africa is also a member of state to the i. c. c, the international criminal court. now, months ago the i c. c issued an arrest warrant for the russian president vladimir putin, over the alleged kidnapping of ukrainian orphans. we've heard from south african officials such as the foreign minister and the lady, pandora, and a and c secretary general q a. and baloo, who said they would have waived this warrant in favor of prudence, actually attending the summit. and obviously he didn't go in person. so they were not put in this tough position, but were there any repercussions to them on the international stage for this position that they took, i mean, to the hague, respond in any way that this was like passage on the number 4

of that in one which speaks to see 1400 guess if you target to so that's okay. yeah . nice to the submitting. the 1st thing is going to happen. so like i'm say, wow. so that's definitely need to get this out there. what solution kind of way to switching. so, and then about to just of like you see this send to me, this comes from was, politically doesn't, so that's a good you for giving the windshield risk. pushing the ne, how they nice to see just being seen. and so that's, that's the whole, the court chosen disagrees. it's, and it has done most of these between so, so there's no set up which is good to go with it. i think that's good. just go into the know the water. and unfortunately to that, they've been put in this position, but like i said, the government, which is of course the government did as part of the political but which is the nc and seeking by the easiest city to general the nc. so he's it,

see if i can sort of the mc most of the, of the places and submitted that this comes with this. and i see that is the husband kitchens that you put into the dentist that you choose, woke up so that you can see my i do not see a government budget from that position and that was so busy, very high chance. oh, i see. i think snowing deep yeah. oh somebody in this. how does that seem putting in handcuffs and of course is going to buttress from the i c. c. by to see what i can do. i mean like what? yeah. nice. what can they do? so that's what punishment are they looking for so, so that's, so is going to show a little when that biased and is, and i think if they took a bus from the sheets of africa. but also when i talk to you on the quote quite a few minutes cuz i'm a little different. so let's go and look at some point and people from the calling

for they kind of withdrawal form. that's the easiest way to do to try to use like what's in practice takes some countries that the c a individual didn't receive up into me. so i see, i see you this background check in this and i think i'm just going to give you the bid us to those called for the kind of portal that was, that did the work in order for me to see these coaches is distributed. each is seem to be, i mean, i can for the majority of the people who really died by the i c, c. i people, some of the got, i know to people from certain days the people can see can see little to be the width. how we did class? well, i get this done one people, but mostly you know, that for the lens, you see there was actually and see this way. uh they, i just wanted to prosecute it in us. so just to kinda take them to that is that you can shoot, are you seeing the bull by this time? will you let us?

i'll call you, they'll kitchens. let's see. people coming to see is that it has an expensive they need to know how to do prosecution side becomes very difficult for this and just want to see guys to see if airports, i think, quote each, it just isn't even sourcing that. i mean, the issue is definitely very difficult. it's pretty quick informing us that was especially in the global thought. we have it, but as you can see that it's my it's so i think before we go into the. ready elements of with a, somebody, it's due to not to do more questions and see he's got to that to sony cuz he does want me to just kind of friends, or maybe that's what you said. you focus of all that's what meets attach for the quote. if it caught the village because i didn't so, so that's we got treat info. so that's why don't quote you, i want that one to see if any of these on the west,

the work i'm for the but if you going to, to honest with you, going to didn't. if you took the doctor to see using the garbage to that as well before, so you know, so i think it was a glitch in the got to be going against eastern pipes, but also again is what it's used. and usually the majority of the citizens right coming up next south african president, serial run the post was embroiled in a financial scandal. busy that had some critics convinced that sofa gate was proof of corruption. we'll discuss it when we return with clinton and salis, a type and we'll, we'll be right back. the the, [000:00:00;00]

the, [000:00:00;00] the, the welcome back to the m o. m l a chance. so every year, millions of people lose things in the couch, cushions regularly. do your spring cleaning and you'll find, you know, a cell phone remote controls loose change old snacks. but how about half a $1000000.00 in cash?

that was just one of the fights, 0 rama post that was facing, losing big money in the sofa, a clinton ins. all a is back with us to discuss it. thank you for sticking around. quinton, so let's get into these domestic affairs within south africa through around the plaza was not that long ago charged with a corruption scandal more than half a $1000000.00 worth. he was recently cleared of any wrong doing, but can you, can you tell us more about that case, but many outlets have called sofa gate. ok. yes. so this gives you 2 must be known as the us, canada. so the name was from that to then suit on a one is the book is which is not all joint inspection. so. busy that's what i'm trying to do to kind of 2020 by the 20, came to the bucket edition. it's interesting to so it is a story that's something we can cause. we finally commit to wake up at

the fun store about $500.00 and i put these to $582000.00 that was past due for the phone. so i put into the reason for the giving to. ready vision, i said the reason for my logic has to get into the eclipse and that's what we did. it was done and they said this might have gotten into, especially in the something like you said this week, i believe you started monday. i don't know because i discovered that she did not report to the police, but she instructed when you put it into he said no security poolside. okay. had those criminals or those individuals rounded the charts and images some of the money in the web page, some money to and they also be getting the case so that it can keep the support from the public to keep it as a secret. so i put a driver, pulls the one for this age, that'd be my name,

and then you also put them in the private division. what do you say? why don't you not each you most every time we go into details and we just somebody, and you don't know since they don't look to say it money check engine for me. just give me just a moment. did you check if you mind, you saw jason cushions and see how did you in mind it was manufactured internet? yeah, i went to products and a bunch of money to seize habitate, texas. well, the money, i saw the venetians, that's been for electron push. i'm a product, so the inquiry that was on the project, i was just clear. so they said it was not on 3. the said on my part i, when he discovered it to replace it to keep 0 secure, excuse me, 0 security was a police officer for the state by default on that end. it'll security. and

unfortunately the jacket of the i the doesn't really say maybe you should have the pleasure to try that, which is higher. so, but oh yeah, it did is from a processor position was real helpful. so once he's, when well set up as a jump, it smells impeached, was impeached on i'm is correct activities. so the jim, whenever i come to see was when to reach the insult it tact but just think of, you know, being associated with a bunch of more like almost every, every month. the new horizons kind of sort of opposing 22. and he kept the head of the n c. i'm the president. it was an implant change from the judge. see the instant i'll be attending the budget on the. ready i don't know if it is that is a nice you used on the line, just simple vision as you see just as a way and still think, what else and additions. yeah, mr. run my posts as party the and see still maintains

a majority in the 400 seat parliament. but it appears that the opposition party f f is gaining traction among voters in the country. did the money scandal that we called sofa gate impact party popularity at all? and, and can you explain for us the fundamental differences between these 2 parties? so yeah, so, so, so by seems to be the model is kind of this like, it's kind of guessing it is going to, it didn't end up to 4 months for the didn't see. but unfortunately that's actually to, that's well, this is already as a student. so much production that's people i don't know when they feel such kind of like most people they, it's kind of conflict strips to see what options, very someone westbridge in nancy. i'm just the for the success of all this stuff which has been declining the previous admin fee and the recent elections. so for instance, the last elections that the student was going to 19 and if i just put 57

percent of the national for the overboard, right. this and concentrated for to that to pull down 62 percent. so even though 6 impediments have dropped from uh, 249 seats in 2014 to 250 seats extension 19. so it shows that they have to redo the losing support. and the people like that the local easy, understand, the reason why the moving towards the limits we don't fight does the is if you see as the. ready well, so that the provision of the n c quoted you have the ability to see that you, the victim from the decision was if i have friends used to be the or the nc, and many other people listening to the people to that the entity has to be stressful positions 80 that it's just going to the center. i can fix it, read it. some states not have to do the right. so they have to make us electrical

visual b, e n c. you said partridge to 6 today on is the decisions at the end. so to do that, but it seems like you the that has to be, she was you if i can just assist you because it comes with uh uh, the rest of it. it doesn't. the lives of interest and of the computers, but they want to just throw 10 percent of the live in the country. so these are the issues with the agency had committed itself to him. so, but i think being of, for now it's ridiculous, but much of up and i need looks like a bunch of tracking speech. so i can do that patient that's different from the, from the, from the yes, if nothing in c has furnished for any of the purposes i'm able to reach inspected, search to the position who supported them to what to do the device. and so, so in the,

to the ends you have to divide that person over to the. ready which they threw that based on since i guess positions. so yeah. and so lastly, on the topic of energy independence for africa as a consummate. so despite south africa being the continents largest economy, it to suffers from many rolling blackouts. energy is perhaps the biggest single driver for our economies. there are a lot of infrastructure projects being worked out between the african union and china. how do you see those various partnerships panning out in the years to come in this, in this pan african view of it originally? so i think like, yeah, so why don't speak english? i wanted to highlight to say the division between china, and that's the kind of goose by this. i think you get from using 2000 by china had been nothing much and i think one of the areas projects that took me to stick it in some yes. united to submit the transactions on good evidence. well yeah. title when

you had a budget and so the government consume up. we sat there which is dependent on what you score you need to. it's rosie, but we want to set up to get to the supports need to be today to the, to tennessee. i'm the only, well 2 phones that jack in 2000. yeah. they put up the i'm from yeah 1st and that was listed on the oil change done because these agents and feasible, i need to know. i was looking for a ticket project eagle, china that they've submitted before. it's i know if you can just do it before it was going to because it just viewed this in the right from the into the inside. i need to go to put it back in, so that's the key presses oil or fill out the support of the data. because of the situation to then southern virginia from china did getting to the 2000 you typed in there. and if you can definitely, what do you see is that you never took a google that's in the country. it's not going to be no. and then you have all of

these, but it's just that there's a lot of life to the total sum. yeah. they're taking over the app, which is sort of the, i mean, china sticking over the importance of just doing what can you see this moment? i know fortunately, you know, like china agenda, i'd be giving you the media and invite people. the listing was wondering about the concepts inside the splints. when it comes to this issue, it's china. so you have to wait for me and i think that this too and nothing that'd be lived on. but i can get to see the can. what we've got for the indian, it's an issue. it's a snake in your house. the been the whole house to get rid of this next the find means of getting this neg, from the house or mentioning the house. so like as it goes, kind of government issues, china, you should find, these are what this in austin interesting to do. this is you who like what,

what happens when punches able to access and then to find those from china to find these project each really to give some readings best. instead of getting money which was to be a match for each additional for yours. they will get that money from china to view the rights for the at the end of the gods. and that's to be able to find that you, did you get your budget? we should definitely it was because they are to be getting, you know, light duty to the airport. i'm sending sort of images. so we've developed, tentative for now. that just gives the sake of the only someone who is not even someone who's dishonest, which is nice to this is the present that we need it. i think for the country to be able to leave the most of the people from 4 to become being kind of postage 522205558 needs to develop is what is the what incentives? so, and the only way that, like i said,

if you do the financing it to be close to the cost of just $1.00 of which was meant for the need to take those. are they going to? yeah, as they say when the chinese com, you get a road or a bridge when the americans come, you go to lecture, clinton ends all a political commentator at african stream. thank you so much for your analysis today. all right, that is going to do it for this episode of modus operandi the show that digs deep in the foreign policy and current affairs. i'm your host manila chan. thank you for tuning and we'll see you again next time to figure out the m. o.

the the the less up in the is really on the floor on god. so as the, all the analysis, it has the enclave into the cities. so you guys, so you see coming to get a job that you kind of goes on board reportedly being cute, support agent every day they are on site as we go rings the laws to look on certain things, all the different taking on peach tree generation of the number of pos and he is killed,
