TRAVEL BAN: US not expected to release list of South Africans targeted for visa restrictions

The US has announced targeted visa restrictions against South African nationals it says are responsible for, or complicit in, race-based discrimination, incitement of violence and land expropriation without compensation, escalating tensions between Washington and Pretoria. The move comes as the South African government prepares its response to President Donald Trump’s concerns over the country’s policies and treatment of Afrikaners and other minorities.
