Addressing Egregious Actions of The Republic of South Africa

On February 7, 2025, President Donald Trump issued an executive order halting U.S. aid to South Africa in response to its Expropriation Act, which allows for the seizure of Afrikaners' land without compensation, and other policies perceived as racially discriminatory. The order also prioritizes the resettlement of Afrikaner refugees in the U.S., highlighting concerns over human rights and South Africa's foreign policy moves that conflict with U.S. interests. This action could strain U.S.-South Africa relations and has potential legal implications in terms of refugee resettlement and foreign aid management.
