Mandela's grandson: South Africa has been inspired by the resilience of the Palestinians
Nkosi Zwelivelele Mandela, who is a member of the Parliament of South Africa, has said this in an interview with the Anadolu news agency in Istanbul and explained by saying: "We are increasingly motivated by the resilience of the Palestinians and we will certainly not disappoint them in conveying their stories and their pride to international community". 
 
South Africa was the first country to ask the International Court of Justice (ICJ) to indict the Zionist regime of Israel for genocide against the Palestinians of the Gaza Strip.
 
The interim decision issued in January by the court ordered the violent regime to stop the acts of genocide and to take measures to ensure that humanitarian aid reaches the citizens in Gaza.

Mandela emphasized by saying: "of course, for us South Africans, the issue of Palestine has always been close to us and very important in our hearts. The founding father of our nation's democracy, the Honorable President Nelson Mandela, who is my grandfather, when he visited Gaza in 1995, and in 1997 he said and made a promise to the Palestinians that our freedom is incomplete without the freedom of the Palestinian people". 

 
As a member of the Global Return Campaign of Global Palestine, which defends and supports the Palestinian struggle in the Arab world and internationally for the Palestinians to return to their original lands, Mandela has also discussed the cases opened by South Africa against Israel in the International Court of Justice of Justice ICJ and the International Criminal Court (ICC) and explained that, for the first time South Africa as a country has been able to hold the Zionist regime accountable after a period of 76 years for genocide, genocide, war crimes and crimes against what humanity does.

In another part of the interview, Nkosi Zwelivelele Mandela has emphasized the need for "reforms" in international institutions, especially the United Nations Security Council and the United Nations as well.

He said: "We have seen time and time again, when a motion is brought to the United Nations, it is opposed by a veto vote by one member state, which enables criminals to carry out genocide, genocide, war crimes and crimes against humanity".../
