US President Donald Trump said on Friday that no US government official will attend the G20 conference to be held in South Africa this year. He cited the bad treatment being meted out to white farmers in African countries as the reason behind this.
Trump has already said that he will not go to this conference himself. Vice President JD Vance was supposed to go in his place, but now he too will not go. Trump wrote on his social media site – It is completely shameful for the G20 to be held in South Africa.
They accused white farmers of African origin (Afrikaners) of violence, death and confiscation of their land and farms. The Trump administration has long accused South Africa’s government of discriminating against minority farmers and allowing attacks.
On this, the South African government says that it has been more than 30 years since the apartheid system ended, yet white people live a much better life than black citizens. President Cyril Ramaphosa told Trump – The news of atrocities on white farmers is completely false.
While giving a speech in Miami this week, Trump said – South Africa should be thrown out of the G20. Earlier this year, Secretary of State Marco Rubio also boycotted the G20 meeting of foreign ministers.
