U.S. President Donald Trump said on Sunday, without citing evidence, that "certain classes of people" in South Africa were being treated "very badly" and that he would cut off funding for the country until the matter is investigated.

US President Donald Trump has said he will cut all future funding to South Africa over allegations that it was confiscating land and "treating certain classes of people very badly". Last month, President Cyril Ramaphosa signed into law a bill that allows land seizures without compensation in certain circumstances.

President Donald Trump is threatening to cut all U.S. funding to South Africa, seemingly over the African nation's controversial land expropriation law.
