U.S. government officials will not attend this year's G20 summit in South Africa, President Donald Trump said Friday, as the president continues to rail against the host country's alleged discrimination of its white citizens. Trump had previously said he wouldn't attend the summit " a meeting of world leaders to discuss economic development " with Vice President JD Vance slated to attend in the president's absence. But the boycott would effectively pull the U.S.'s presence from the conference entirely.
"Afrikaners (People who are descended from Dutch settlers and also French and German immigrants) are being killed and slaughtered, and their land and farms are being illegally confiscated," Trump wrote on Truth Social. "No U.S. Government Official will attend as long as these Human Rights abuses continue."
