South Africa police minister on Friday said U.S. President Donald Trump ‘twisted’ facts to push baseless genocide claims one day of an Oval Place of job meeting with South Africa’s President Cyril Ramaphosa.
Trump claimed that a clip he played one day of the meeting showed white crosses on the aspect of a avenue, were a memorial for white farmers who were killed.
Police Minister Senzo Mchunu said the crosses did now not stamp graves or burial websites, but were a brief memorial set up in 2020 to tell farm killings across South Africa.
He said they were set up one day of a funeral procession for a white couple who were killed in a robbery on their farm.
Mchunu said the faux claim by Trump changed into half of his “genocide narrative” — regarding the U.S. president’s baseless allegations that there is a neatly-liked marketing campaign in South Africa to raze white farmers and take their land that he has said quantities to a genocide.
“Now we like got admire for the of us of the US and now we like admire for the president of the US, President Donald Trump, but now we haven’t any admire for his genocide narrative the least bit,” said Mchunu.
