WASHINGTON, D.C. – America is attempting to help the allegedly oppressed white minority in South Africa, and the government there is retaliating with aggressive retribution, according to the U.S. State Department.
Tensions appear to be escalating between the United States and South Africa, as American officials scramble to address the latest aggressive tactics the African nation is taking after President Trump earlier addressed “unjust and immoral practices that harm our Nation” and allowed whites to migrate here.
Today, the U.S. State Department condemned in the strongest terms the South African government’s recent detention of U.S. officials performing their duties to provide humanitarian support to Afrikaners, and the public release of U.S. officials’ passport information, calling it “an unacceptable form of harassment.”
“This can only be seen as an attempt to intimidate U.S. government personnel in South Africa on official business,” the State Department continued. “The United States will not tolerate such behavior toward its government’s officials – or toward any of its citizens – who are legally and peacefully operating abroad. The public release of personal identifying information puts the official in harm’s way.
“Failure by the South African Government to hold those responsible accountable will result in severe consequences. We call on the Government of South Africa to take immediate action to bring this situation under control and hold those responsible accountable.”
Earlier this year, President Donald Trump and the White House addressed the “egregious actions of the Republic of South Africa.”
In more detail, the White House said:
“In shocking disregard of its citizens’ rights, the Republic of South Africa recently enacted (a law) to enable the government of South Africa to seize ethnic minority Afrikaners’ (whites) agricultural property without compensation. This Act follows countless government policies designed to dismantle equal opportunity in employment, education, and business, and hateful rhetoric and government actions fueling disproportionate violence against racially disfavored landowners (again, typically, white people). In addition, South Africa has taken aggressive positions towards the United States and its allies, including accusing Israel, not Hamas, of genocide in the International Court of Justice, and reinvigorating its relations with Iran to develop commercial, military, and nuclear arrangements. The United States cannot support the government of South Africa’s commission of rights violations in its country or its ‘undermining United States foreign policy, which poses national security threats to our Nation, our allies, our African partners, and our interests. It is the policy of the United States that, as long as South Africa continues these unjust and immoral practices that harm our Nation:
– the United States shall not provide aid or assistance to South Africa; and
– the United States shall promote the resettlement of Afrikaner refugees (whites) escaping government-sponsored race-based discrimination, including racially discriminatory property confiscation.”
It has been reported that scores of white South Africans have been admitted into the United States in connection to President Trump’s resettlement program.
