Trump's anti-SA crusade must be stopped
Mail & Guardian
|M&G 14 November 2025
When South Africa hosts the G20 leadership summit in Johannesburg next week, United States President Donald Trump and his deputy JD Vance will be conspicuous by their absence from this crucial global showpiece.

In September, after keeping the world guessing for months, Trump indicated he would not attend the summit, but would send Vance. Last week, as has become his trademark, he changed tune and said no US official would attend, repeating the false narrative that South Africa was illegally confiscating land from whites and “slaughtering” them.
