Groups representing some of South Africa’s white minority have responded to a plan by President Donald Trump to offer them refugee status and resettlement in the United States by saying: thanks, but no thanks. The plan was detailed in an executive order Trump signed Friday that stopped all aid and other financial assistance to South Africa as punishment for what his administration said were “rights violations” against white South Africans. The South African government denies it. Two of the most prominent groups representing Afrikaners said Saturday they are here to stay but thanked Trump for raising their issues.
