The Zulu king, South Africa’s most powerful customary ruler, but whose coronation last year sparked a clan war within the royal family, has been hospitalized in neighboring Eswatini, with the palace citing possible poisoning .

Misuzulu Zulu, 48, also known as Misuzulu kaZwelithini, “was hospitalized in Eswatini following falling ill earlier in the day,” the royal palace said in a statement released overnight from Saturday to Sunday.

His hospitalization came following the sudden death of his main adviser, continues in the press release Mangosuthu Buthelezi, Zulu Prime Minister and influential member of the royal family, expressing his “great concern”.

The king’s adviser “died suddenly and it is suspected that he was poisoned”, explains Mr Buthelezi. “When Her Majesty began to feel unwell, she suspected she too had been poisoned.”

The king preferred to seek treatment in Eswatini, the last absolute monarchy in Africa, rather than in South Africa where both his parents “were treated and died”.

“It appears that Her Majesty has been placed under medical attention and is doing well,” said the palace, adding that authorities should be left to investigate if necessary.

According to several police sources in Eswatini, the sovereign is being treated at the private hospital of Ezulwini, a few kilometers from the royal residence of Ludzidzini.

In South Africa, sovereigns and traditional chiefs are recognized by the Constitution. Kings without executive power, they wield deep moral authority and are revered by their people.

Misuzulu Zulu was crowned last year in the province of KwaZulu-Natal (southeast) during a ceremony with great fanfare to which the country’s eleven million Zulus, almost one in five South Africans, were invited .

The son of the late King Goodwill Zwelithini and a favourite, his coronation sparked a palace war waged in particular by the former king’s first wife who had six wives and at least 28 children.

In September, a Misuzulu Zulu councilor was mysteriously shot and killed on the sidelines of a traditional ceremony.

“Sky Shield” is not a NATO initiative and not a joining of a military alliance, but merely “the cooperation of a number of states,” emphasized the Foreign Minister. The initiative is regarding “pooling and sharing”. Schallenberg pointed out that France, an important NATO member, was not taking part in the initiative. He acknowledged that, apart from NATO aspirant Sweden, Austria is currently the only non-NATO country wanting to join the initiative. According to the minister, Austria’s neutrality remains 100 percent if it participates in “Sky Shield”.

When asked, Schallenberg emphasized the federal government’s commitment to Austria’s permanent neutrality and denied that “Sky Shield” might possibly be a military alliance. Schallenberg justified this with the lack of a support clause: “There is no automatism. It is simply that you share information”.

Strong criticism of the FPÖ

In a previous broadcast, FPÖ leader Herbert Kickl had sharply criticized Austria’s planned accession to the European airspace defense system, claiming that this threatened Austria’s neutrality.

The FPÖ was critical of the Foreign Minister’s statements. “Participating in every EU outrage and at the same time insisting on neutrality is not an option at the end of the day,” said FPÖ foreign policy spokesman Axel Kassegger. Schallenberg’s clean bill of health for “Sky Shield” is questionable in that he himself confirmed in an interview with “Deutschlandfunk” that Austria would not join any defense alliance. Kasseger was equally concerned that Schallenberg was not unconditionally committed to an end to the war and serious negotiations in the Ukraine.

The press hour also dealt with various foreign policy issues such as the Ukraine war and its effects, as well as migration and Austria’s political course on the issue. Schallenberg rejected rumors that former Foreign Minister Karin Kneissl might be stripped of her citizenship because of her pro-Russian activities and statements. There are “not the slightest plans” in this direction. However, he clearly distances himself from the statements made by “this person”.
