President Donald Trump misidentified images of victims from the war between the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Rwandan-backed M23 rebels during a meeting with South African President Cyril Ramaphosa.
On Wednesday, Trump presented Ramaphosa with evidence of persecution against white South African farmers. This included a video montage of South African politician Julius Malema singing an inflammatory song calling for followers to “kill the Boer,” or white farmers, and a row of white crosses representing white farmers killed in attacks. He then held up a thick collection of printed-out articles on the persecution of white Afrikaners in South Africa, especially farmers.
