The Trump administration announced on Tuesday it will admit an additional 10,000 white South Africans as refugees this year due to an unforeseen emergency involving racially motivated violence. The South African government rejected the claims on Wednesday through Foreign Ministry spokesperson Chrispin Phiri, who stated accusations of systemic persecution lack factual basis. Approximately 6,000 South Africans have relocated under the existing program since last year, with some beneficiaries later returning.
