US weighs ad campaign to boost Afrikaner refugee applications from South Africa

The US State Department is considering a $335,000 research and advertising campaign in South Africa to understand why Afrikaner refugee applications remain low, despite Trump's claims of 'white genocide'. The proposal indicates applications 'trended lower than expected' after direct online applications were allowed. This reflects a policy push based on disputed claims, with uncertain impact on bilateral relations.
