'Expropriation land of white farmers South Africa must continue'

cape town - The new South African president Cyril Ramaphosa has defended expropriation of land from white farmers in favor of black residents Tuesday in parliament. He wants to allow expropriation without compensation in case of emergency. The allocation of land to the black population must continue but must be done cautiously.

According to Ramaphosa, this means that no violence may be used and that agricultural production must be maintained.

He called the possession of land by whites at that time an 'original sin' of his country that needs to be restored. According to the 65-year-old president, it contributed to the 'impoverishment' of the black population.

Ramaphosa is a former trade union leader who, as an entrepreneur, kicked it into a multimillionaire.
