US to Process 4500 White South African Refugee Applications

Published 22 hours ago
Description

The U.S. plans to process 4,500 refugee applications monthly from white South Africans, a significant increase from current levels. This is part of a special program for Afrikaners claiming persecution in South Africa. Despite President Trumps effort, only about 2,000 have made it in so far. The South African government denies any systemic targeting of white farmers, while refugee advocates call the policy discriminatory. A no-bid contract worth $772,000 was awarded for temporary processing buildings, but recent delays in Washington have paused all refugee travel, including for these applicants, through early March.
