US President is facing South African leader demanding African persecuted ‘

US President Donald Trump has encountered South Africa President Cyril Ramaphosa in a White House with a video that, according to the US president, supports his statement that white farmers are “persecuted” in the country.

The footage shown during a press conference with the South African leader believes to show the graves of the killed farmers. Trump did not say where he was shot and the footage was not checked by the BBC.

Ramaphos – who seemed to weigh carefully how to respond – challenged Trump’s allegations. He said black people are much more likely to be victims of violence in South Africa than white people.

Trump also stated that he would look for “explanations” from his guest to widely discredited white “genocide” claims in South Africa.

On Wednesday, Ramaphos came to the White House for negotiations to reset US African relations.

He hoped to fascinate Trump with the inclusion of the two most famous South Africa gols in the delegation. Ramaphos also came as a gift to a huge book featuring the golf place.

But after a heart start, the mood in the oval office shifted when Trump asked for the lighting to make the video.

The film presented the voice of the leading South African opposition figure Julius Malem, who sang the song: “Shoot at the storm (African), shoot the farmer.”

He also showed a field of crosses that the US president, which speaks over the images, said he was the burial place of white farmers.

He then presented Ramaphos what seemed to print the stories of white people who had been attacked in South Africa.

“What you saw is the speeches that have performed … This is not a state policy,” Ramaphos replied.

“We have multiparty democracy in South Africa, which allows people to express themselves.

“Our government policy is completely against the fact that he (Malem) spoke even in the parliament, and they are a small party of minority, which is allowed to exist in accordance with our Constitution.”

Ramaphos said he hoped that Trump would listen to the South African voices on this issue.

The leader of South Africa noted the white members of his delegation, including Golf Erni Els and Retieph Gussen, as well as the richest person in South Africa Johann Rupert.

“If there was a genocide, these three gentlemen wouldn’t be here,” Ramaphos said.

Trump interrupted: “But you allow them to take the ground, and then, when they take the land, they kill a white farmer, and when they kill a white farmer, nothing happens to them.”

“No,” Ramaphos replied.

Ramaphos acknowledged that there was “crime in our country … People who were killed through criminal activity are not only white people, most of them are black people.”

When Trump pressed the question, Ramaphos remained calm – and tried to work his charm, joking about the US aircraft’s proposal.

He addressed the name of Nelson Mandela’s anti -port icon, saying that South Africa remains committed to racial reconciliation.

When the journalist asked what would happen when white farmers left South Africa, Ramaphos rejected the question to his white agriculture minister John Stunhuis, who said most farmers wanted to remain.

But Trump continued to shoot with salvy in Ramaphos, which avoided entering the screaming match with him – what happened to the President of the Ukrainian Bargaine Zelensky when he met Trump in the same room in February.

Earlier this month, a group of 59 white South Africans arrived in the United States, where they received refugee status. Ramaphos said they were “cowards” at the time.

Before the White House meeting on Wednesday, South Africa’s leader emphasized that improving trade relations with the US became his priority.

South African exports to the United States face a 30% tariff as soon as Trump’s new taxes end in July.

The tension between South Africa and the US intensified a few days after Trump took over in the second term in January.

It was at this point that Ramaphos signed a controversial bill in the law, which allows the South Africa government to expose land in private property without compensation under certain circumstances, if considered “fair interest”.

This served only to delay the image of the largest economy in Africa in the eyes of the Trump administration – already angry with its genocidal affairs against Israel in the International Court.

In February, the US president announced the suspension of critical assistance to South Africa and suggested allowing members of the African community – which are mostly white descendants of early Dutch and French settlers to settle in the United States as refugees.

South Africa’s ambassador to Washington, Ebrahim Rosol, was also expelled in March after Trump’s charge of “mobilizing the supreme” and an attempt to design a white sacrifice as a dog whistle. “
