During a meeting on Wednesday, Trump had an aide present a video to the South African president that alleges "white genocide."

Claims of a "white genocide" in South Africa were "unfounded and unsubstantiated," South Africa's police minister said.

South Africa’s finance chief said the government made progress on resetting its relationship with the US and securing a trade deal in talks that took place after President Cyril Ramaphosa’s showdown with Donald Trump at the White House.
