Ramaphosa Trolls Qatar’s Jet Gift to Trump With Savage Swipe: 'I Don’t Even Have a Plane to Give!'
South African President Cyril Ramaphosa stole the spotlight with a sharply delivered remark that left world leaders—and social media—buzzing.
In what appeared to be a cheeky jab at the recent headlines around Qatar gifting a private jet to Donald Trump, Ramaphosa quipped during a diplomatic exchange: “I don’t even have a plane to give!”
The unexpected comment, made in Trump's presence, was met with laughter and raised eyebrows at the high-level event.
While Qatar’s controversial gesture drew criticism and praise across political lines, Ramaphosa’s unfiltered response added a bold twist to the narrative.
In a major international development, former U.S. President Donald Trump has announced a sweeping 30% tariff on all goods imported from South Africa, set to begin on August 1. In a letter, Trump claimed South Africa's trade policies are "far from reciprocal," prompting this drastic measure. The White House has indicated that these tariffs could be adjusted based on the future of US-Pretoria relations.
Responding swiftly, South African President Cyril Ramaphosa has sharply pushed back, labelling the tariff a "contested interpretation" of the current trade reality. In a statement from his office, Ramaphosa highlighted that South Africa's average tariff on imports is a modest 7.6%, and a staggering 77% of all U.S. goods enter the country completely duty-free. He has tasked a special team to urgently engage with U.S. officials on the matter.
High-stakes negotiations are already underway. U.S. and South African officials have met in Angola to discuss tariff relief and market access. South Africa's trade ministry is pushing to delay the deadline and negotiate a new framework, with sources indicating they are seeking to cap the duty rate at 10% as a potential compromise. The international community is watching closely as a Press Secretary Leavitt has hinted at a possible delay, leaving the future of US-South Africa trade hanging in the balance.

Donald Trump issued a bold warning to BRICS nations—Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa—accusing them of trying to “undermine the dollar.” Trump declared a 10% tariff would hit any country aligning with BRICS or challenging U.S. currency dominance. “The dollar is king. We’re going to keep it that way,” he asserted. The statement signals Trump’s aggressive stance on global finance and hints at harsh penalties for nations embracing BRICS’ alternative trade frameworks or currency cooperation.

Hamas welcomed the BRICS summit statement demanding an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and full Israeli withdrawal. The BRICS communiqué accused Israel of using starvation as a weapon of war and condemned its ongoing military siege. With over 57,400 Palestinians killed, BRICS backed Palestinian statehood with East Jerusalem as its capital. Hamas urged BRICS nations-including China, Russia, and South Africa-to intensify global pressure on Israel’s blockade and occupation. The group also reaffirmed support for UNRWA and denounced aid politicization in Gaza.

Thousands of Israelis flooded the streets of Tel Aviv, marching from Hostage Square to the US Embassy, demanding an immediate and comprehensive hostage deal with Hamas. Families of captives, backed by freed hostages, pleaded with Prime Minister Netanyahu and President Trump to finalize an agreement to bring all remaining hostages home.
Freed hostage Doron Steinbrecher passionately urged both leaders to "make Israel great again," referencing her 471 days of terror in Gaza tunnels. Protesters carried Israeli and American flags, and banners demanding Trump’s leadership. The powerful march came amid stalled ceasefire talks in Qatar, and rising frustration with Israel's government. Some demonstrators also condemned army draft exemptions for ultra-Orthodox Jews, adding fuel to the fire. With at least 50 hostages still in captivity and negotiations stalling, desperation and political anger are boiling over. The world watches as Israel pleads for a resolution to this human tragedy.
