G20 Summit | Why Trump Is Boycotting the G20 Summit In South Africa

The United States is boycotting the upcoming G20 Summit in South Africa. President Donald Trump, who had earlier said he would skip the meeting later this month, has now confirmed that no U.S. official will attend on his behalf. Trump called the summit "a total disgrace," as relations with Pretoria have sharply deteriorated during his second term. At the heart of the fallout is Trump's claim of 'human rights abuses' against the ethnic white minority Afrikaners in South Africa.
