Protest Disrupts South Africa President’s Speech

De Klerk, South Africa’s last apartheid-era president, who shared a Nobel Peace Prize with Nelson Mandela for their efforts to end white rule, be ejected from parliament accusing him of being “unrepentant”. “De Klerk is an unrepentant apologist of apartheid, who is not willing to accept that apartheid was crime against humanity.
