Ebrahim Rasool, the South African diplomat, has been expelled from the US following controversial comments about President Trump and white supremacism. The decision has sparked divided opinions, with some defending Rasool's right to express his views as a diplomat, while others believe he crossed a line. South African President Cyril Ramaphosa called the expulsion regrettable and stated that efforts are being made to resolve the situation. Rasool, who grew up in Cape Town during apartheid, has a history of activism and previously served as US ambassador from 2010 to 2015. Critics argue that Rasool's views on the Trump administration made him a target for expulsion.
