The United States President Donald Trump says he would cut off all future funding to South Africa until a full investigation of the Land situation is completed

President Trump disclosed this at the White House media briefing on Monday February 3, 2025 at the White House in Washington, DC.

Africa This Week gathered that US President Donald Trump has accused South Africa of “confiscating” land and “treating certain classes of people very badly” and announced that he was cutting off all future funding to the country pending an investigation.

Diplomatic observers say the land issue in South Africa has long been divisive, with efforts to redress the inequality of white-rule drawing criticism from conservatives including Elon Musk, the world’s wealthiest person, who was born in South Africa and is a top Trump adviser.

“South African President Cyril Ramaphosa last month signed a bill that stipulates the government may, in certain circumstances, offer “nil compensation” for property it decides to confiscate in the public interest.

“South Africa is confiscating land, and treating certain classes of people VERY BADLY,” Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform on Sunday, February 2.
