"'There is no data at all that backs that there is persecution of white South Africans or white Afrikaners in particular,' South African Foreign Minister Ronald Lamola said. 'White farmers get affected by crime just like any other South Africans.'
Still, many rural white communities have long expressed fear at the threat of violence and feel attacks against them in home invasions and robberies are especially brutal.
(. . .)
The Trump administration has also criticized South Africa’s affirmative action policies as racist against whites and has falsely claimed white South Africans are having their land taken away by the government under a new expropriation law that promotes 'racially discriminatory property confiscation.'
No land has been expropriated, but Afrikaners who make up many rural communities have raised fears their land might be targeted.
South Africa has laws designed to advance employment opportunities for Blacks, and many white South Africans and white-led political parties have also criticized them and called them racist and counter-productive."
