Malema says Afrikaner asylum seekers look like ‘car guards’, not farmers – The Mail & Guardian

The leader of the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF), Julius Malema, has made controversial remarks regarding the recent departure of Afrikaners from South Africa to the United States under refugee status. Malema stated that none of the individuals who left were farmers, as claimed, but instead appeared to be “car guards”.

Addressing a crowd of EFF supporters outside the Union Buildings, Malema called for the addresses of the farms that the Afrikaners allegedly left behind to be verified. He expressed skepticism about the true status of these individuals and questioned why the media had not provided a list of the farms in question.

The extension of refugee status to Afrikaners by US president Donald Trump earlier this year has sparked debate about the treatment of minorities in South Africa. Trump has repeatedly referred to white farmers as victims of “genocide” and has raised concerns about their safety.

Despite Trump’s assertions, South African President Cyril Ramaphosa has denied the existence of genocide in the country and emphasized the importance of trade relations between the two nations. Ramaphosa is scheduled to meet with Trump to discuss various issues, including the alleged persecution of Afrikaners.

Malema, known for his provocative rhetoric, accused those pushing the narrative of white genocide of spreading propaganda. He challenged AfriForum leaders to lead by example and relocate to America if they truly believed in the dangers faced by white South Africans.

In conclusion, the debate surrounding the departure of Afrikaners and the alleged persecution of white farmers in South Africa continues to be a contentious issue. Malema’s comments reflect the ongoing tensions and political divisions within the country, as well as the complex relationship between South Africa and the United States.
