South Africa’s Ramaphosa Backs Trump’s Afrikaner Refugee Scheme: Reports | Firstpost Africa | N18G

In a significant diplomatic shift, South Africa has reportedly agreed to stop interfering with a controversial US refugee programme targeting Afrikaners. The programme, a centrepiece of Donald Trump’s Africa policy, stems from his widely contested claims of “white genocide” and systematic land seizures in South Africa. While Pretoria continues to dismiss these allegations as false, officials now state they will respect the right of citizens to migrate freely. This move follows a period of extreme bilateral tension, marked by a 30% US tariff on South African goods and South Africa’s exclusion from the upcoming G20 summit in Miami. Tensions peaked in late 2025 after South African authorities raided a US refugee centre in Johannesburg, arresting several staff members. With approximately 1,000 Afrikaners having relocated to the US since May 2025, Pretoria’s new “non-interference” stance appears to be a strategic manoeuvre to repair fractured ties with Washington. --- South Africa US Relations | Afrikaner Refugee Programme | Donald Trump Africa Policy | White Genocide Claims | South Africa Diplomatic Shift | US South Africa Tensions | G20 Summit Miami | Firstpost Africa | Joshua Barnes | Africa | Global South | Geopolitics | Military Coup | Environment | Climate Change | Firstpost | News Live | World News | Latest News | Global News | International News | News | Trending News #southafrica #uspolitics #afrikaners #refugeecrisis #donaldtrump #firstpostafrica #africa #joshuabarnes #globalsouth #militarycoup #firstpost #newslive #worldnews #latestnews #globalnews #news #internationalnews #trendingnews Firstpost is an Indian news and media website.
