Māori Party co-leader wants mana motuhake excercised
Te Pāti Māori co-leader Rawiri Waititi has come out hard against the Americans who he says are propping up wars including those in Palestine and the Ukraine.
He says the Maori Party’s policy of mana motuhake requires a stance of armed neutrality.
“And so we are continuously at the whim of the Americans, who to me, are propping up many of these wars around the place. You know, who’s providing all the military support to Israelis, who’s supporting the military support to the Ukraine And I’m not afraid to say these types of things,” he says
Rawiri Waititi says mana motuhake is that we are able to stand on our own two feet.
