‘Full investigation’
The US president has already announced temporarily freezing all foreign aid as part of his “US First” agenda, which has stopped billions of dollars in global funding.
Last month, Ramfosa signed a bill in the law, which would make it easier for the state to seize the land in the public interest so that after the elimination of color in 1994, ethnic differences in land ownership could be removed.
According to the government, the bill does not allow it to seize property. The landlord should reach an agreement.
Writing on the truth, Trump said: “Unless the thorough investigation of this situation is complete, I will reduce all future funds to South Africa.”
In response, the South African Department of International Relations and Cooperation said: “We are confident that President Trump’s adviser should use the investigative period to seek a full understanding of South Africa’s policies within the framework of constitutional democracy. Will
“It may be clear that our conflict act is not uncommon, because in many countries there is a similar legislation.”
Ramphosa added that in addition to the AIDS Relief Program administered by the US Agency for International Development (USAID), no other important fund has been provided to South Africa through the United States.
