White refugees from South Africa could begin arriving in the US as early as next week.
According to sources who spoke to Reuters, an initial cohort of around 50 Afrikaners will be flown into Washington Dulles airport, where a press conference will be held, before the refugees travel on to their ultimate US destinations.
Many are expected to settle in Minnesota, as well as Idaho and Alabama.
Sources also said their arrival had already been delayed by a week and that the plans could still change.
Back in February, President Trump announced that all foreign aid to South Africa would be halted over its governments persecution of the country’s white minority.
“South Africa is confiscating land, and treating certain classes of people VERY BADLY,” the President posted on Truth Social.
“It is a bad situation that the Radical Left Media doesn’t want to so much as mention. A massive Human Rights VIOLATION, at a minimum, is happening for all to see. The United States won’t stand for it, we will act. Also, I will be cutting off all future funding to South Africa until a full investigation of this situation has been completed!”
He also announced that “any Farmer (with family!) from South Africa, seeking to flee that country for reasons of safety, will be invited into the United States of America with a rapid pathway to Citizenship.”
It’s believed 1,000 white South Africans could immediately relocate to the US. As many as 70,000 have expressed interest in the scheme.
Trump’s refugee scheme for white South Africans is in line with his new refugee policy to allow only refugees who “can fully and properly assimilate.”
