During a tense meeting at the White House, Donald Trump confronted South African President Cyril Ramaphosa over claims regarding violence against white farmers in South Africa, presenting videos and articles that he asserted documented widespread brutality. Trump’s assertions, including the existence of burial sites marked by rows of crosses, were debunked by BBC Verify, which clarified that the footage was from a protest and does not indicate a genocide, as South African police reports show minimal farmer killings. Ramaphosa rebutted Trump’s claims, emphasizing that the EFF party, associated with anti-white sentiments, represents a minority and that government policy contradicts Trump’s assertions.
