Cyril Ramafosa says the Africa “run” from South Africa to us are “cowards”

President Cyril Ramafosa called a group of 59 white South Africans who moved to the United States to dispose of “cowards”, saying that “they will be back soon.”

ACRICANTERS GROUP Arrived in the US on Monday After President Donald Trump provided them with a refugee status, saying they were facing racial discrimination.

But Ramafosa said that those who want to leave are not happy with their efforts to deal with the inequalities of Apartheid’s past, calling their move “sad moment for them”.

“Like South Africans, we are sustainable. We are not running away from our problems. We must stay here and solve our problems. When you run, you are a coward and this is a truly cowardly act,” he added.

Trump and his close ally, South Africa -born Elon Musk, said there was a “genocide” of white farmers in South Africa – – a claim that is widely discreditedS

The United States has also accused the South Africa government of seizing land by white farmers without paying compensation.

More than 30 years after the end of the decades of government by the white minority in South Africa, black farmers have only a small part of the best agricultural land in the country, with the majority still in white hands, leading to anger over the slow rate of change.

In January President Ramafosa signed a A controversial law allowing the government to seize private land Without compensation in certain circumstances, when considered “fair and in public interest”.

But the government says that land has not yet been seized under the law.

Trump suggested that he move white African, descendants of mostly Dutch settlers, saying they were running from a “terrible situation” in South Africa.

Speaking on Monday at an agricultural exhibition in the province of the free country, Ramafosa said Africani moved to the United States because they were not “favorable deposits” with efforts aimed at addressing the country’s challenges.

“If you look at all national groups in our country, black and white, they are left in this country because it is our country and we should not run away from our problems. We have to stay here and solve our problems,” Ramafosa said.

“I can bet you that they will be back soon because there is no country like South Africa,” he added.

His remark about the “cowardly” angered some social media users who condemned him as an insult to the injured white South Africans.

The Africani group was greeted by US senior officials who claim to be “living under the shadow of violence and terror” in South Africa.

“Welcome to the Land of the Free,” said Deputy Secretary of State Chris Landau as he received the South Africans who landed at Dulles Airport near Washington on Monday.

Some kept young children and waved small American flags in the arrival area, decorated with red, white and blue balloons on the walls.

Earlier on Monday, President Ramafosa told African Executive Director in Abidjan, Cotta D’Ivoir, that he recently told Trump during a telephone conversation, assessing the situation in the US is “not true”.

“We are the only side of the continent where the colonizers came to stay and we have never kicked them out of our country,” he added, rejecting the allegations that Africa were persecuted.

Ramafosa said dozens of white South Africans who arrived in the United States on Monday “do not answer the account” for refugees.

The South African leader said he would soon meet Trump on the matter.

Trump has threatened to boycott the upcoming South Africa summit, unless the situation is taken care of.
