The Trump Administration has notified South Africa that it is ending the U.S. President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) after the country failed to protect white South Africans from violence and displacement, the Daily Caller has learned.

The State Department told the country that its government failed to do the following six things:

provide exemptions or alternatives for US companies to Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment laws and other race-based mandates.

have senior government officials unequivocally condemn all race-based incitement to violence, including the “kill the Boer” song, more frequently.

prevent the implementation of measures that would allow expropriation without fair compensation and due process under the Expropriation Act of 2024.

designate rural crime a “priority crime,” and increase resources dedicated to high-crime rural areas.

and refrain from actions that would significantly interfere with the implementation of the refugee program within the confines of South African law.

“South Africa is a middle-income country and is more than capable of supporting its own health programs,” a State Department spokesperson told the Caller of the decision. (RELATED: Self-Proclaimed South African ‘Stalin’ Condemns White Refugees Fleeing Persecution)

President Donald Trump has been vocal about his opposition to the White South Africans being persecuted. In May 2025, Trump forced the President of the Republic of South Africa to watch videos of the country’s leaders calling for the genocide of white farmers.

While meeting with the world leader in the Oval Office, Trump ordered his staff to dim the lights and play videos of “genocide in South Africa.”

The video was a montage of different clips of political leaders from the minority party in South Africa calling for killing the Boers — a term that means “farmers” and refers to white South Africans. They were chanting along.

As one of the clips played, Trump said there were a thousand burial sites of deceased white farmers in South Africa and their families lining up to pay their respects. South African President Cyril Ramaphosa faced forward or glanced at Trump instead of looking at the screen while the videos played.

After the video ended, NBC News’ Peter Alexander broke the silence by asking Trump about the Air Force One jet Qatar is giving to the United States.

“You ought to get out of here. What does this have to do with a Qatari jet? They are giving the United States Air Force a jet, and it’s a great thing. We are talking about a lot of other things. NBC is trying to get off the subject of what you just saw. You are a terrible reporter. Number one, you don’t have what it takes to be a reporter,” Trump started. “You are not smart enough.”

“But for you to go into a subject about a jet that was given to the United States Air Force — which is a very nice thing; they also gave $5.1 trillion worth of investment, in addition to the jet — you ought to go back to your studio at NBC because Brian Roberts and the people that run that place ought to be investigated. They are so terrible, the way they run that network, and you are a disgrace. No more questions from you,” Trump continued.

The president later held up articles of a series of physical articles about murders and rapes of white South Africans that were provided to him by staff.

“These articles over the last few days — death of people, death, death, horrible death,” the president said.
