    “The German government is yet to fully atone for the genocide it committed on Namibian soil,” Geingob’s office said on social media.

    “In light of Germany’s inability to draw lessons from its horrific history, President Geingob expresses deep concern with the shocking decision communicated by [Germany] … in which it rejected the morally upright indictment brought forward by South Africa before the ICJ that Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza,” Geingob’s office said.
