The United States government has decided not to attend the G-20 summit in South Africa due to abuses against white citizens

The president of the United States, Donald Trump, announced this Friday that no representative of the U.S. government will attend the upcoming G20 summit in South Africa, in protest against the serious human rights abuses against the country's white Afrikaner farmers.
The decision, widely celebrated, represents a firm stance by the president in the face of enormous racial injustice and the moral failure of the South African government.
"It's a total disgrace that the G20 is being held in South Africa. Afrikaners are being murdered, their land illegally confiscated, and their rights ignored," Trump wrote on his social network Truth Social. No U.S. government official will attend while these abuses continue. I look forward to hosting the 2026 G20 in Miami, Florida," the president added.

Trump, who had already confirmed that he would not personally participate in the summit, also canceled the attendance of Vice President JD Vance, who was initially going to represent the United States at the world leaders' event.
According to sources close to the White House, the decision aims to send a strong message about the responsibility of governments to protect all their communities, regardless of skin color.
The U.S. president has spent years denouncing the persecution and violence suffered by white farmers in South Africa. Many have been victims of brutal attacks, murders, and expropriations in the name of an agrarian reform that Trump and hundreds of other voices describe as racist and vindictive.

The Trump administration has repeatedly warned that the African National Congress (ANC), the ruling party in South Africa, has allowed the creation of a climate of hostility toward Afrikaners, in many cases justifying the forced occupation of private land.
In response to this situation, the U.S. president reduced the annual refugee quota to 7,500, prioritizing the admission of persecuted white South Africans, a measure that reflects a real commitment to defending victims of racial discrimination, regardless of their origin.
The South African government has rejected the accusations, claiming that Afrikaners continue to enjoy a higher standard of living than the country's black majority. However, this doesn't justify the attacks or confiscations, nor has the violence against white farmers reached alarming levels.

The president has also harshly questioned President Cyril Ramaphosa's foreign policy, especially the decision to accuse Israel of genocide before the International Court of Justice for its war in Gaza.
Trump reiterated that South Africa should be expelled from the G20 for its discriminatory policies and for ignoring the values of freedom and private property.
Secretary of State Marco Rubiohad already boycotted a previous G20 meeting in South Africa for focusing on "diversity and inclusion" instead of economic priorities, thus anticipating the current government's hard line. South Africa holds the rotating G20 presidency until November 2025, before handing it over to the United States, which will host the next summit in Miami.
