The Afrikaner community of South Africa has received significant news coverage in the United States since President Donald Trump announced he would grant members of the group refugee status. This and other issues related to the Afrikaners have been key stressors in the US–South Africa relationship and were major points of discussion between Trump and South African President Cyril Ramaphosa during their recent meeting in the Oval Office.
Three leaders of prominent South African organizations with strong Afrikaner memberships are visiting the US to discuss the key issues roiling ties between Washington and Pretoria:
