South Africa wants clarification about tweet Trump

johannesburg - The South African government wants clarification about a tweet from Donald Trump. The American president stated on Twitter that he had instructed his Minister of Foreign Affairs to properly review the 'seizures and expropriations of land and farms and the large-scale killing of farmers' in that country.
