The United States is stopping all federal funding to South Africa, President Donald Trump said on March 7, adding that farmers looking to leave would be welcome in the United States.

“South Africa is being terrible, plus, to long time Farmers in the country. They are confiscating their LAND and FARMS, and MUCH WORSE THAN THAT. A bad place to be right now, and we are stopping all Federal Funding,” Trump said in a social media post.
