Trump administration will admit an additional 10,000 white South Africans into the US

# US president Donald Trump has signed a presidential determination to admit an additional ten-thousand white South Africans into America as refugees this year. This raises the limit from seven-thousand-500 to 17-thousand-500 in this fiscal year. In the presidential determination, Trump states that an unforeseen emergency refugee situation now exists in South Africa, due to recent increases in the incitement of racially motivated violence on the part of the government and leaders of prominent political parties. He added that raising the refugee cap is justified.
