Reading Time: < 1 minute

The African National Congress (ANC) has called on the International community to stand against what continues to take place in Ukraine. There has been continuous shooting and attacking of that country by Russian troops, leaving behind devastation.

ANC National Spokesperson, Pule Mabe told a media briefing at the party’s headquarters in Johannesburg, that the ANC National Working Committee has expressed deep concern over the developments between Russia and Ukraine.

Mabe says this has to end. “The international relations should be underpinned by the commitment to development, democracy, human rights, peace and security in line with the call by the Freedom Charter, that there shall be peace and friendship. It expressed its concern at the suffering of the ordinary people in every country that is involved – either directly or indirectly in this conflict and called upon all global people to ensure that harm to civilians invites appropriate repercussions in line with the values of a humane, just, equitable and free world.”
