South Africa made a new rule about land, and it made many people upset. The rule lets the government take land from people without paying them in some special cases. President Trump from America did not like this rule. He stopped giving money to South Africa because he thought the government was taking land unfairly.
South Africa has many political parties working together to run the country. The biggest party is the ANC, but another party called the DA does not agree with this new land rule. The DA thinks the rule breaks South Africa's laws and wants to stop it from being used.
The reason for this new rule comes from South Africa's past. Many years ago, there was an unfair system called apartheid that took land away from black people. Even today, most private farms belong to white people. The government wants to make things fairer, but the DA worries this rule might hurt everyone's rights.
The ANC party says they have not taken any land without paying yet. They promise they will only use this rule when they really need land for important public things. They say Trump believes wrong information about what is happening in their country.
Trump wants to help white South African farmers move to America as refugees. These farmers came from Dutch and French families who settled in South Africa long ago. South Africa's leader, President Ramaphosa, plans to send people to other countries to explain why they made this new rule about land.
The DA party remembers how the old apartheid government used similar rules to take land from black people. They want to make sure this never happens again to anyone. They think the best way to fix past problems is to protect everyone's right to own land.
