Mulder says claimed white genocide did not come up during US trip


FF Plus leader Dr. Corné Mulder says their trip to the United States brings a message of hope. Mulder accuses President Cyril Ramaphosa and his delegation of acting prematurely when they went on a state visit to the United States of America in May to mend relation with the Trump administration.

The party briefed the media in Kempton Park after returning from their 10-day trip to the US.

Mulder says they didn’t go there to complain but express their side of the story.

“Once again let me repeat the four precondition that were given to us in the White House and asked us to convey that in South Africa…to do that in public,” says Mulder.

Mulder further says Ramaphosa’ state visit to the US in May was premature. He argues to mend the relation with the Trump administration; things should have been done differently.

He also revealed that during their trip, discussions on claimed genocide didn’t arise while they didn’t meet with the 50 white Afrikaners that were granted refugee status by the Trump administration.

Meanwhile, the FF Plus leader says he is still to meet Ramaphosa to brief him on the outline of their trip.
