South African President Cyril Ramaphosa pushes back against Donald Trump’s claim that South Africa will be barred from the 2026 US‑hosted G20, stressing that South Africa is a founding member and will remain a “full, active and constructive” participant. He says the US stance is being driven by a disinformation campaign about so‑called “genocide” and land seizures, warning that these falsehoods are damaging South Africa’s national interests, jobs, and relations with one of its key partners.
