South Africa's government issued a formal diplomatic reprimand to US Ambassador Leo Brent Bozell III on March 11, 2026, after he publicly dismissed a Constitutional Court ruling during a speech the previous day, insisting the anti-apartheid-era 'Kill the Boer' chant constituted hate speech. Bozell later expressed regrets and affirmed US respect for South Africa's judiciary amid strained bilateral relations.
