US EditionWayment! Trump Administration Welcomes White South Africans As Refugees To U.S. Causing Internet Uproar
- On May 12, 2025, the U.S. Admitted 59 white South African Afrikaners as refugees, greeted at Washington Dulles Airport by Deputy Secretary Christopher Landau.
- This exception followed President Trump’s February executive order suspending most refugee admissions while fast-tracking the Afrikaners due to alleged persecution and ease of assimilation.
- The Afrikaners, descendants of Dutch settlers, arrived amid Trump’s claims of white genocide in South Africa, a narrative widely disputed by South African officials who deny targeted persecution.
- Landau said the Afrikaners are welcome and respected because they meet criteria including no security threat and assimilation potential, while critics called the policy hypocritical and racially biased.
- This policy deepened debates on racial bias in U.S. Immigration, highlighting a near-total refugee freeze with selective exceptions that exacerbate concerns about undermining refugee protections.
