The president of the United States, Donald Trump, has faced the president of South Africa, Cyril Ramaphosa for discredited claims of a white genocide in the African country.
During a meeting that took place at the Oval office, the United States, on Wednesday, Trump said that white farmers are “fleeing from South Africa” ​​and proceeded to play a video that showed a crowd singing “kills the Boer, kills the farmer.”
According to the BBC, the moment marked the first time that a direct ambush had been witnessed during a high -level diplomatic meeting in the oval office.

In response to the video, Ramaphosa said the songs do not represent government policy.
Despite the provocative nature of the images, the South African leader maintained a quiet behavior throughout the encounter.
At the time he compared with Trump's past confrontation with Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky, and analyst Anthony Zurcher said: “There were parallels with the infamous meeting of Zelensky in the oval office, but Ramaphosa maintained its composure.”
The meeting is produced in the midst of greater attention to a group of 59 White South Africans who recently arrived in the United States and, according to reports, the refugee status is granted.
