Ever since the Trump administration amended the definition of genocide to include "racial population transfers" in mid-2017, there has been speculation that this would lead to prioritizing the evacuation of white South Africans. It appears that this prediction may come true, as it is now being reported that up to 30,000 of the 40,000 refugee cap in the US may be allocated to white South Africans, specifically the Afrikaner minority. This would mark a significant shift in prioritizing those fleeing war or persecution, as is traditional in refugee policy.

This news comes in the wake of increasing violence and political unrest in South Africa, with many Afrikaners claiming that they are victims of discrimination and even 'ethnic cleansing'. Their concerns have been largely ignored by the mainstream media, and their claims range from increased persecution to outright genocide.

Bob Chancellor, a former US ambassador to South Africa, asserts that "I don't think you can say the situation of Afrikaners today is equivalent to what's happening in Syria or Afghanistan... I believe that the Trump administration would be justified in allocating a disproportionate quota to South Africa."

Despite Chancellor's assertions, critics worry that prioritizing refugees based on race, religion, or other demographic factors - as the Trump administration has done in the past - undermines the very essence of refugee resettlement and violates the fundamental principles of equality and human rights.

As the situation in South Africa escalates, it will be interesting to see how the US responds, and whether these reports of targeted evacuation programs will materialize.
