South African President Cyril Ramaphosa responded on Monday to US President Donald Trump’s threat to cut off aid over the alleged mistreatment of White farmers, denying Trump’s claim that authorities were “confiscating land.

South African President Cyril Ramaphosa said on Monday that he looked forward to engaging with U.S. President Donald Trump, after Trump said he would cut off funding for South Africa, citing land confiscations.

U.S. President Donald Trump says he will cut all funding to South Africa and has launched an investigation of the country’s polices, claiming a “massive” human rights violation is happening over a new land expropriation law.
