'Turn the lights down' - Trump confronts Ramaphosa with video
In an extraordinary Oval Office meeting, US President Donald Trump confronts South African President Cyril Ramaphosa with a video promoting discredited claims of a "white genocide" in South Africa. The meeting, held at the White House, turns tense after the Trump administration screens the documentary. Responding to the footage, Ramaphosa says the chants don't represent government policy. It comes just days after the US granted refugee status to 59 white South Africans, citing concerns over alleged persecution.
