Paul said: “If South Africa wants to contribute to peaceful solutions, that is all well and good, but South Africa is in no position to take on the role of a peacemaker or mediator. And if South Africa prefers confrontation, Rwanda will deal with the matter in that context any day.”

Netizens shared varying opinions on Nota's sentiments:

@VladiJong shared:

"I disagree with you Nota Tutsi people were abused and Rwanda stood and with them took them in when exiled. He knows their pain SA has no business there unless it is for private interest. What you are saying is if we are supporting Israel against Palestine and go there. We have no business in Congo."

@GYerathel replied:

"What an embarrassing government and leadership."

@Lingomso_lab advised:

"Put your hand on your chest and say you are the coward here. Then, breathe in and out while you pack to Botswana for the next month or two, but we will stay and deal with Rwanda."
