Trump to cut off funding for South Africa over expropriation act


//politics-government.news-articles.net/content/ .. ing-for-south-africa-over-expropriation-act.html
Published in Politics and Government on Monday, February 3rd 2025 at 8:20 GMT by Reuters   Print publication without navigation

  • Three U.S. Army soldiers were onboard a BlackHawk helicopter that collided with a passenger jet near Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport, U.S. officials said on Wednesday.

The article from Reuters discusses former U.S. President Donald Trump's comments on South Africa, where he suggested that if re-elected, he would cut off all future funding to the country. This statement was made in response to a question about South Africa's land reform policies, which involve expropriating land without compensation. Trump's remarks were part of a broader critique of U.S. foreign aid, claiming that the U.S. gives away billions of dollars to countries that he believes do not appreciate or need the aid. He specifically mentioned South Africa's land expropriation as an example of why he believes such funding should be reconsidered. However, the article also notes that the U.S. currently provides very little direct aid to South Africa, with most of the support coming through programs like PEPFAR for HIV/AIDS treatment.
