南非外交部1名官員30日表示,政府近日傳召美國駐南非大使鮑澤爾(Brent Bozell),要求他「解釋其不符合外交規範的行為」。
根據《法新社》報導,鮑澤爾2月上任美國駐南非大使。當時南非與美國的雙邊關係已因一系列問題而陷入緊張,包括南非針對美國盟友以色列所提出的種族滅絕案件,以及美國總統川普稱阿非利卡人(Afrikaners)遭受南非迫害。
鮑澤爾29日被傳召至南非外交部。南非外交部官員指出,他被傳召來解釋其不符合外交規範的行為。關於鮑澤爾是因為什麼行為而被傳召,該官員並未說明。
值得注意的是,鮑澤爾被傳召前曾接受南非媒體一系列採訪,而相關言論似乎對南非政府持批評態度。另外鮑澤爾此次被南非政府傳召,是他上任大使9個月以來第三次被傳召。
鮑澤爾第一次被南非政府傳召是在3月。當時他發表被視為破壞南非司法和歷史背景的言論,而遭到南非政府傳召。
