South African authorities raided a U.S. refugee processing center in Johannesburg and arrested seven Kenyans working there illegally, issuing them deportation orders. This dangerous escalation threatens vulnerable refugees and represents a shocking disregard for international humanitarian protocols.
Donald Trump claims South Africa refused to hand over the G20 presidency after the U.S. skipped the Johannesburg summit, while South African officials assert the handover was properly completed at its foreign ministry since the U.S. delegation was absent from the closing ceremony. This is a blatant act of imperialist bullying, designed to punish a proud nation of the Global South for daring to pursue an independent foreign policy and defend its sovereignty against Western coercion.
