South Africa has criticised the US as reports emerge suggesting Washington could receive white Afrikaners as refugees as early as next week.

A document seen by the BBC’s US partner CBS describes the potential resettlement as a “priority” for President Donald Trump’s government, however the timing has not been publicly confirmed by the White House.

In a statement published on Friday, South Africa’s foreign ministry described the purported move as “politically motivated” and designed to undermine South Africa’s “constitutional democracy”.

    I just don’t know what they expect will happen when they get to the USA.

    I assume they aren’t going to be handed a huge plot of land to farm with.

      I like this take. So you want to live on the dollar? Hope you like expensive rent and low salaries.
