🇺🇸🇿🇦⚡️ — The Trump administration plans to admit up to 17,500 additional white Afrikaners from South Africa as refugees during fiscal year 2027, beginning in October, according to a State Department notice sent to Congress and obtained by CBS News.

The administration intends to allocate most of its 17,500 refugee places to Afrikaners, citing alleged racial discrimination, land seizures, and violence against the minority.

The South African government has repeatedly rejected claims that Afrikaners face persecution.
