President Trump welcoming South African President Cyril Ramaphosa a week after the U.S. admitted 59 white refugees from South Africa who say they face discrimination in their home country.

White people are about 7% of the population in South Africa, but hold about three-quarters of the farmland. In recent years, many accounts of grisly attacks on the South African farms, including dozens of murders. The South African government does not release statistics on race and crime.
What accusations does Trump make against South Africa?
But a South African farmers union reports that of all murders between 1990 and 2017, 87 percent were of whites. President Trump has accused the South African government of allowing a genocide against Afrikaners, a white minority group largely composed of farmers. Mr. Trump getting right to it on Wednesday.
A lot of people are very concerned with regard to South Africa. And that's really the purpose of the meeting. And we'll see how that turns out. But we have many people that feel they're being persecuted and they're coming to the United States. So we take from many, many locations if we feel this persecution or genocide going on. And we had a lot of people.
What is the reality of white farmers in South Africa?
I must tell you, Mr. President, we have had a tremendous number of people, especially since they've seen this. Generally, they're white farmers and they're fleeing South Africa. And it's a very sad thing to see. But I hope we can have an explanation of that because I know you don't want that.
President Ramaphosa emphatically denies accusations of a genocide in his country. One reporter questioning President Trump.
What will it take for you to be convinced that there's no white genocide in South Africa?
Well, I can answer that for the president. It will take President Trump listening. to the voices of South Africans, some of whom are his good friends, like those who are here. When we have talks between us on a quiet table, it will take President Trump to listen to them. I'm not going to be repeating what I've been saying. I would say if there was Afrikaner farmer genocide, I can bet you These three gentlemen would not be here, including my Minister of Agriculture.
