flag South African President Ramaphosa condemned Trump’s false claims about South Africa, calling his views uninformed and racist.

flag South African President Cyril Ramaphosa said he was shocked by Donald Trump’s views during a May 2025 Oval Office meeting, calling them “truly uninformed” and “racist.” Trump, who promoted the false “white genocide” conspiracy, presented Ramaphosa with a video and clippings falsely depicting violence in South Africa—some footage was from the Democratic Republic of Congo. flag Ramaphosa rejected the claims, noting farm attacks affect all races, with Black South Africans the majority of victims, and criticized Trump for ignoring apartheid’s legacy and misrepresenting the country’s reality. flag The White House defended Trump, saying he was responding to humanitarian concerns over Afrikaner farmers, but Ramaphosa dismissed the narrative as misleading and disproportionate.
