Summary

Trump announced he will cut U.S. funding to South Africa, citing alleged land “confiscations” and human rights abuses under its new land expropriation law.

The law allows the government to acquire land without compensation in limited cases, such as abandoned properties.

South African President Cyril Ramaphosa rejected Trump’s claims, stating the policy aligns with constitutional principles.

Trump’s remarks follow similar claims raised by South African-born billionaire Elon Musk.
