South Africa admits US claims that arms were shipped to Russia ‘still stand’
Fox News
Washington, D.C., is still waiting for answers from South Africa on whether arms have been supplied to Russia, as a U.S. senator calls for reevaluating the relationship between the countries.
Brigety last week told reporters that he was so confident that arms had been loaded onto the ship, that he would bet his life on it. Paul Tilsley covers Africa for Fox News Digital.

While the allegations are not new, there remains no concrete answers from the South African government. Shortly after the Lady R sailed out of Cape Town’s waters, South Africa’s Defense Minister Thandi Modise told reporters, "I do not want to comment on the content of this vessel until I get all the paperwork." That was five months ago, and Modise has yet to provide further information.
