India, March 13 -- The new US ambassador to South Africa has been summoned to explain his criticism, the country's foreign minister said Wednesday, as a diplomatic rift continues over foreign policy that the Trump administration describes as anti-American and domestic policies it calls anti-white.

Ambassador Leo Brent Bozell III was summoned after speaking at a meeting of business leaders on Tuesday, where he challenged the South African Government over its diplomatic ties with Iran and its affirmative action laws that advance opportunities for Black people ahead of other races.
