South Africa’s Chief Rabbi: Trump Was Right to Call Out Ramaphosa on ‘Genocide’
- South Africa's Chief Rabbi Warren Goldstein supported President Donald Trump's criticism of President Cyril Ramaphosa during their recent White House meeting in May 2025.
- Trump confronted Ramaphosa during their meeting by showing videos from political events organized by Julius Malema, where he repeatedly led chants inciting violence against white farmers—rhetoric that Ramaphosa has yet to publicly condemn.

- Goldstein concluded that the South African government's refusal to address this rhetoric and violence has eroded public trust and that honest acknowledgment of these failings is necessary for a better future.
