Trump accused the South African government of not protecting this minority from violence and murders, declaring: “their lands are expropriated, they are killed and the government does nothing”.
Ramaphosa, leader of the African National Congress (ANC), completely rejected Trump’s claims, denying any form of genocide against the Afrikaner community. He specified that the acts of violence reported by Trump are the work of “a minority of black extremists” and do not represent the line of the South African government. During the bilateral, the South African leader replied: “There is no need for me to say that there is no genocide of the Afrikaner, as long as you listen to his South African friends here”.

Afrikaner represent about 7% of the South African population, but have over 70% of the country’s agricultural lands.

Ramaphosa said that the laws promoted by his government do not aim to discriminate, but to rebalance a panorama strongly marked by decades of racial segregation.
