Zuma Slams Ramaphosa’s US Trip, Says SA Should Solve Its Own Problems

Former president Jacob Zuma has criticized President Cyril Ramaphosa’s recent visit to the US, accusing him of seeking foreign solutions instead of addressing South Africa’s challenges at home. Speaking at an MK Party rally in KwaMaphumulo, KwaZulu-Natal, Zuma questioned the logic of relying on “unknown Americans” to fix the country’s political and economic issues.

“Why should we look abroad when we have the history, knowledge, and people to solve our own problems?” Zuma said. “We must stop begging and start building.”

Ramaphosa’s May 2025 trip to Washington was seen as an effort to strengthen ties with the US under President Donald Trump’s second term and attract investment in key sectors like energy, manufacturing, and infrastructure. While some view this as necessary diplomacy, Zuma called it a threat to national sovereignty. His remarks echo his long-standing distrust of Western influence, previously voiced during the state capture inquiry.

The criticism comes amid ongoing tensions between South Africa and the US over issues like land reform and Pretoria’s genocide case against Israel at the International Court of Justice. Political analysts say Zuma’s comments highlight deepening divisions in South Africa over whether global partnerships or local solutions should drive progress.

“South Africa needs strong leadership, not handouts,” Zuma declared. The Presidency has not yet responded to his remarks. As the debate continues, many citizens remain divided on the best path forward for the country.
