‘No Thanks’: White South Africans refuse Trump’s American immigration offer | News about politics
The US President’s executive order provides relocation for African ‘who are victims of unjust racial discrimination’.
The offer of the President of the United States Donald Trump to restart the white South Africans because the refugees fleeing in persecution may not stimulate the invasion of the forefront, because the right -wing white lobby groups want to “resolve the injustices of” the rules of the black majority on the home ground.
Trump on Friday signed an executive order to reduce us help in South Africa, stating Expropriation law This President Cyril Ramaphos signed last month with the aim of correcting the inequality of land arising from the history of the superiority of white South Africa.
Trump’s command ensured the move to the United States “Africa in South Africa who are victims of unjust racial discrimination” as refugees.
Africans are mostly white descendants of early Dutch and French settlers, who possess most of the land of agricultural land.
“If you have no problem here, why would you like to go?” Asked Neville Van der Merwe, a 78-year-old retired in Botha sure near Cape Town.
“It wasn’t really bad [people] By taking over our country, people continue as normal and know, what will you do there? “
The law signed by Ramaphos seeks to deal with the inequality of the ownership of racial land-which in the hands of a white minority left three quarters of privately owned land in the hands of white minorities, which will make it easier for the state to expose land in public interest.
Ramaphos defended politics.
White people represent 7.2 percent of the population of South Africa of 63 million inhabitants, according to statistics. The data does not break down how Africans are.
Before the independence of South Africa, the British colonial rulers handed most of the agricultural land to the whites. In 1950, the National Party of Apartheid seized 85 percent of the country, forcing 3.5 million blacks from their homes.
The African National Congress of Ramaphos (ANC), the largest party in the ruling coalition, says Trump enhances the misinformation that has propagated Afiforum, a group led by Africa.
The group, who lobbied Trump’s previous administration regarding his cause, said she did not take over the offer.
“Emigration offers only an opportunity for Africans who are willing to risk the potentially sacrificing the cultural identity of their descendants as Africa. The price for this is simply too high, “the Executive Director of Afiforum Kallie Kriel said on Saturday.

Separately, the Solidarity Movement – which includes the Afiphorum and the Solidarity Union and said that it represents about 600,000 families of African and two million individuals – expressed commitment to South Africa.
“We can disagree with Anc, but we love our country. As in any community, there are individuals who want to emigrate, but the repatriation of Africane as a refugee for us is not a solution, “said the Solidarity Movement.
Representatives of Orania, enclaves only in the heart of the earth, also rejected Trump’s offer.
“Africans don’t want to be refugees. We love and we are dedicated to our homeland,” Orania said.
South African land policies from the end of Apartheid never included forcibly deprivation of the country in white.
Still, some said they appreciate Trump’s offer.
“I think it is a very beautiful gesture of Donald Trump to offer us asylum there,” said Werner Van Niekerk, 57, a carpenter in Botha security, not saying whether to migrate to the US.
Others saw the funny side.
“Some questions: Is there a test to determine your Africanation? Do you have to have membership in Afiphorum?… Will the Elon help with some startup cash on the other side? Pieter Du Toit wrote on X, referring to a billionaire born in southern Africa and Trump’s auxiliary assistance to Elon Musk, who accused Ramaphosin Government of “Open Racist Ownership Act”
