In a controversial move, former U.S. President Donald Trump announced on Sunday his intention to cut off future financial support to South Africa. Trump has demanded the nation investigate the alleged poor treatment of certain classes of people.

Accusations include claims of land confiscation and the unfair treatment of specific groups. These allegations, made via Truth Social, lacked supporting evidence.

Trump declared that the United States would not tolerate such practices, asserting that financial assistance would be withheld until a thorough investigation is completed.
