What the coverage says
President Trump is removing South Africa from the African Growth and Opportunity Act trade program. The New York Times reports that this action is the latest measure taken against the country following administration accusations that it discriminates against white people. Additionally, the BBC notes that Rwanda will also be removed from the trade arrangement. That move follows US Treasury sanctions issued against the Rwandan defense ministry roughly a week prior.
