US President Donald Trump has announced a decision to cut all future funding to South Africa due to allegations of land confiscation and poor treatment of certain classes of people.
This comes after President Cyril Ramaphosa signed a bill allowing land seizures without compensation in certain circumstances.
Land ownership in South Africa remains contentious, with most farmland owned by white people.Elon Musk, who was born in South Africa and is now a Trump adviser, has also joined in the debate on his X account, questioning the country’s openly racist land ownership laws.
South Africa has reacted and rejected any claims of land confiscation.
