President Donald Trump said that he would not invite South Africa to participate in next year’s G-20 summit in Miami and that he planned to “stop all payments and subsidies” to the country, as relations between Washington and Pretoria continue to deteriorate.

Trump, in a social media post on Wednesday, repeated claims without evidence that South Africa was committing genocide against White Afrikaners and seizing land without compensation and criticized the country’s handling of the recent global summit.
