US EditionWhite House bans U.S. agencies from all work on G-20 in South Africa
- The White House banned all U.S. Government agencies from participating in the 2025 G-20 summit in Johannesburg, South Africa, scheduled for November.
- This move follows President Trump's accusations that South Africa is committing genocide against white citizens and his threat to boycott the G-20 unless the issue is addressed.
- South African officials, including President Cyril Ramaphosa, denied these allegations, and many white South Africans also rejected the claims tied to land expropriation laws aiming to correct apartheid-era inequalities.
- Multiple sources called the White House withdrawal effectively a U.S. Pullout from the forum of major economies, and experts noted that Trump's boycott threat and accusations were viewed as outlandish.
- The ban implies reduced U.S. Engagement with global economic cooperation efforts under the G-20 framework and reflects heightened tensions over South Africa's domestic policies and U.S. Foreign relations.
