ANC welcomes Russia repatriations

 

 

SAPA, IOL, Johannesburg, 2 September 2014

 

It is heartening that government continues to try and have struggle heroes
buried in Russia repatriated to South Africa, the ANC said on Tuesday.

 

The African National Congress welcomed reports from the presidency that
South Africa was in talks with Russia regarding repatriations, spokesman
Zizi Kodwa said in a statement.

 

"Comrades Moses Kotane, JB Marks and Ivor Jones are just a few of these
exemplary heroes and heroines whose names continue to reverberate throughout
the annals of our history."

 

The ANC called on South Africans to celebrate Heritage Month this year by
recommitting themselves to the ideals of equality, freedom and a better life
for all, which many in the country and abroad had fought for.

 

"Twenty years into democracy, it is these stories of perseverance and
triumph that anchor our decisive and sustained actions to build a national
democratic society as we move South Africa forward."
