South Africa is upset because the United States stopped giving them money. The U.S. President made this decision because he worried about how South Africa handles land ownership. South African leaders say the U.S. doesn't understand their country's hard past.
South Africa's government tells everyone the U.S. is wrong about their country. They explain that long ago, many people lost their land unfairly. Today, they want to make things right by giving some land back to families who lost it.
The U.S. government thinks this plan might cause problems. They worry it could make business people nervous about investing in South Africa. But South African leaders say America should remember its history before judging others.
The U.S. also said some people from South Africa can come live in America as refugees. This made South African leaders angry because these people already had good lives. They point out that America sends away many poor people who need help from other countries.
South Africa wants to talk with America about these problems. They hope both countries can become friends again. Some smart people say America did this to show they don't like what South Africa is doing, but the money isn't that important.
Many people wonder what will happen next. Business owners and other leaders are watching carefully to see if this fight between the two countries will cause bigger problems. South Africa keeps saying it wants to fix things by talking nicely with America.
