President Trump has announced a cessation of all foreign assistance to South Africa, asserting that his administration will focus on resettling white, Afrikaner refugees. He claims that actions taken by the South African government amount to racial discrimination against landowners. This announcement follows Trump's previous accusations of human rights violations by South Africa. The tone of his order suggests an endorsement of persistent conspiracy theories regarding the treatment of white South Africans in post-apartheid society, which have often been disputed and lack substantive evidence.
President Trump has ordered a halt to all foreign assistance to South Africa, claiming it prioritizes the resettling of targeted white, Afrikaner refugees.
The President accused the South African government of violating human rights and vowed to fully investigate their treatment of certain racial groups.
Trump's order officially endorses long-standing conspiracy theories about the alleged mistreatment of white South Africans since the end of apartheid.
In a previous 2018 order, he instructed the secretary of state to investigate claims regarding the killing of farmers, which were disputed.
