A group of 59 white South Africans has arrived in the US, where they are to be granted refugee status.
President Donald Trump has said the refugee applications for the country's Afrikaner minority had been expedited as they were victims of "racial discrimination".
The South African government said the group were not suffering any such persecution that would merit refugee status.
The Trump administration has halted all other refugee admissions, including for applicants from warzones. Human Rights Watch described the move as a cruel racial twist, saying that thousands of people - many black and Afghan refugees - had been denied refuge in the US.
The group of white South Africans, who landed at Dulles airport near Washington DC on Monday, received a warm welcome from US authorities.
Some held young children and waved small American flags in the arrival area adorned with red, white and blue balloons on the walls.
The processing of refugees in the US often takes months, even years, but this group has been fast tracked. UNHCR - the United Nations refugee agency - confirmed to the BBC it wasn't involved in the vetting, as is usually the case.
Asked directly on Monday why the Afrikaners' refugee applications had been processed faster than other groups, Trump said a "genocide" was taking place and that "white farmers" specifically were being targeted.
"Farmers are being killed, they happen to be white, but whether they're white or black makes no difference to me."
But South African President Cyril Ramaphosa said he told Trump during a phone call the US assessment of the situation was "not true".

Hey BBC...how about the FARMERS THAT THEY KILLED IN ZIMBABWE??
WASN’T THAT ENOUGH FOR YOU????
These refugees ARE native to that land - their ancestors have lived there for hundreds of years, so they are African, that land is in their blood
Racial groups of the Western Cape (2022 census). Coloured (42.07%); African (38.84%); White (16.4%); Indian (1.14%); Other (1.55%).
All the white farmers will eventually leave or be killed, then the black population will begin to starve. It’s nothing new. Democrats, again, won’t care, since there’s no white devils to blame.
‘The South African government said the group were not suffering any such persecution that would merit refugee status.’
Pres. Trump has a history of “Not Lying”. So, do we believe him or the Communists running South Africa?
Too many:"refugees” from Afghanistan already, a lot of them terrorists.
Did this “Human Rights Watch: ever speak out against the murders of white farmers by blacks in South Africa?
Not that I recall.
The main thing is for the radical left here and the black’s there is to get the whites out and nothing more.
Newly elected member of Parliament in South Africa:
“We will kill the white man's children, we will kill their woman, we will kill anything that we find in our way..”
I bet you don't see this on mainstream media.pic.x.com/HZj1TeD34Z

If all whites must leave Africa then it also makes sense that all blacks should leave Europe. But libs are full of double standards. They can be racist and call everyone racists at the same time.
Julius Malema wants to take the rights away of every Afrikaner, seizing land from White farmers and killing anyone who resists. He's poised to win the next election and he's not even hiding what his plans are anymore.

It’s a stupid idea that won’t work.
All whites are NOT farmers!
Why do you suppose, if you even know that they no longer have daily 24 hour electricity, they don’t, nor have potable water ? And NO, the drought is only a small part of that!
BBC is miss spelled.
B BS = Big BS!
Globalist Lies.
Rhodesia = Zimbabwe = Mass Genocide and butchery of farmers.
They leave or die.
Then the commies starve.

Ya gotta love the way the beeb puts scare quotes around anything Trump says but just take the corrupt and openly discriminatory South African government’s word for it whenever they say something....no scare quotes around their statements.
Shocker.
Yep. Hate.
Replay of Zimbabwe.
I don’t blame the Boer’s for leaving.
If all left, the Commies will starve.
Or they may resort to eating their own people.
