South Africa today celebrated Africa Day, the 60th anniversary of the establishment of the Organization of African Unity. On this occasion, South African President Cyril Ramaphosa delivered an offensive speech that contrasted with the atmosphere of the festivities.
The ceremony was held at the highly symbolic "Cradle of Humanity" on the outskirts of Johannesburg, a paleontological site where many remains of prehistoric men have been found. But for a celebration of Africa, there was a lot of talk about the conflict between Ukraine and Russia.
