YouTube Description
as posted by the channelDonald Trump blindsided South African President Cyril Ramaphosa on Wednesday by playing a video he falsely claimed proved a genocide was being carried out against white South Africans under what he called “the opposite of apartheid.”
The confrontational stunt sparked one of the most tense Oval Office meetings since Trump’s infamous pressure campaign against Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
Despite the provocation, Ramaphosa—who had expressed hopes of "resetting" U.S.-South Africa relations—refused to be rattled, calmly responding, “Let’s talk about it very calmly,” defusing the moment with measured restraint.
