Trump Bars South Africa From 2026 Miami G20, Halts U.S. Payments and Subsidies

With no formal G20 expulsion process or official U.S. guidance, the practical impact remains unclear.

Overview

  • Trump announced on Truth Social that South Africa will not receive an invitation to the 2026 G20 in Miami, which he says will be hosted at his Doral club.
  • He said the United States will stop all payments and subsidies to South Africa with immediate effect.
  • South Africa rejected the allegations of abuses against white citizens, saying its actions follow a constitutional system that rejects racial discrimination.
  • The United States boycotted the Johannesburg leaders’ summit, and Pretoria declined to hand the symbolic presidency gavel to a lower‑rank U.S. embassy representative.
  • Neither the White House nor the State Department has explained how the exclusion would be implemented in a forum that lacks a mechanism to bar members.
