<\/p>\nUS President Donald Trump said on Wednesday that he was barring South Africa from taking part in the Group of 20 summit next year in Miami and will \u201cstop all payments and subsidies\u201d to the country over its treatment of an American government representative at this year\u2019s global meeting.<\/p>\n
Trump chose not to have a US delegation attend the recent summit hosted by South Africa, saying he did so because white Afrikaners were being violently persecuted. It is a claim that South Africa, which was mired for decades in racial apartheid, has rejected as baseless.<\/p>\n
The Republican president, in a social media post, said South Africa had refused to hand over its G20 hosting responsibilities to a senior representative of the US embassy when the summit ended over the weekend.<\/p>\n
\u201cTherefore, at my direction, South Africa will NOT be receiving an invitation to the 2026 G20, which will be hosted in the Great City of Miami, Florida next year,\u201d Trump posted.<\/p>\n
\u201cSouth Africa has demonstrated to the World they are not a country worthy of Membership anywhere,\u201d he said, \u201cand we are going to stop all payments and subsidies to them, effective immediately\u201d.<\/p>\n
