In a pointed message on X, Rubio declared that Ambassador Ebrahim Rasool is \u201cno longer welcome\u201d in the United States. \u201cWe have nothing to discuss with him, and so he is considered PERSONA NON GRATA,\u201d Rubio wrote, linking to a Breitbart News article that detailed Rasool\u2019s disparaging comments about President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n<p>According to the report, Rasool made controversial remarks at an event hosted by the Mapungubwe Institute for Strategic Reflection (MISTRA) in Johannesburg. During his address, the South African diplomat attempted to clarify Trump\u2019s recent foreign policy stances, specifically criticizing Trump\u2019s opposition to South Africa\u2019s property expropriation legislation and alliances with nations such as Iran and Hamas. However, Rasool\u2019s comments veered into incendiary territory when he claimed that Trump was \u201cleading a white supremacist movement\u201d around the world.<\/p>\n<p>Rubio\u2019s response was swift and unequivocal. He branded Rasool as \u201ca race\u2011baiting politician who hates America and hates @POTUS,\u201d and his forceful language underscores a clear message from the State Department: the United States will not tolerate diplomatic conduct that undermines its values or maligns its elected leaders.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a dramatic twist on the international stage, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has taken a bold stand against the South African ambassador to the United States.
