President Donald Trump, on Friday announced why the United States didn’t participate in the G20 summit in South Africa, citing severe concerns over human rights abuses targeting white farmers and descendants of Dutch, French, and German settlers.

BIGPEN NIGERIA (https://bigpenngr.com) reports in a post made on his verified X handle, President Trump accused the South African government of turning a blind eye to what he described as a “horrific genocide” against white farmers, who have reportedly been victims of violence and farm seizures.

“They are killing white people, and randomly allowing their farms to be taken from them,” Trump stated.

He criticized the mainstream media, including the New York Times, for failing to report on what he called “white genocide,” and vowed that the “liars and pretenders of the Radical Left Media” are “going out of business.”

The President also revealed that South Africa refused to hand over the G20 Presidency to a senior U.S. embassy representative at the summit’s closing ceremony.

As a result, Trump declared that South Africa will not receive an invitation to the 2026 G20 summit, which is scheduled to be hosted in Miami, Florida next year.

“South Africa has demonstrated to the world they are not a country worthy of membership anywhere,” he said.

Furthermore, Trump announced immediate sanctions, including stopping all payments and subsidies to South Africa, effective immediately.

He mainly that the U.S. would take a firm stand against what he characterized as “genocide,” and that it is a shift in U.S. foreign policy priorities.

The move has sparked a flurry of reactions from international observers and political analysts, with some hailing rmTrump’s stance on human rights, while others criticize it as an overreach or diplomatic escalation.

“The United States did not attend the G20 in South Africa, because the South African Government refuses to acknowledge or address the horrific Human Right Abuses endured by Afrikaners, and other descendants of Dutch, French, and German settlers. To put it more bluntly, they are killing white people, and randomly allowing their farms to be taken from them.

“Perhaps, worst of all, the soon to be out of business New York Times and the Fake News Media won’t issue a word against this genocide. That’s why all the Liars and Pretenders of the Radical Left Media are going out of business! At the conclusion of the G20, South Africa refused to hand off the G20 Presidency to a Senior Representative from our U.S. Embassy, who attended the Closing Ceremony.

“Therefore, at my direction, South Africa will NOT be receiving an invitation to the 2026 G20, which will be hosted in the Great City of Miami, Florida next year. South Africa has demonstrated to the World they are not a country worthy of Membership anywhere, and we are going to stop all payments and subsidies to them, effective immediately.
