The first group of Afrikaners from South Africa to arrive for resettlement listen to remarks from US Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau and US Deputy Secretary of Homeland Security Troy Edgar (both out of frame), after they arrived at Washington Dulles International Airport in Dulles, Virginia, on Tuesday. President Donald Trump has defended the decision to resettle a group of white Afrikaners in the United States as refugees, saying they were fleeing a ‘terrible situation’ in South Africa. Trump’s remarks to reporters at the White House came just hours before an initial group of around 50 Afrikaners was set to arrive at an airport outside Washington.
