US President Donald Trump confronted South Africa's President Cyril Ramaphosa at the White House on Wednesday with contentious claims that Ramaphosa's government is conducting a "White genocide". A video clip of a fringe group of extremist Black South Africans addressing the land ownership issue was screened at the Oval Office, prompting Ramaphosa to push back against Trump’s accusations, saying his government was opposed to such actions.
