South Africa has officially suspended all American businesses within South Africa also stopped the exporting of minerals to the United States of America.
This comes just a few days after Donald Trump cut off all funding from the US to South Africa and the USAID to South Afrika 

The South African government categorically made it clear to Donald J. Trump that America is nothing without minerals from Africa and if he thinks Africans are nothing but mere beggars, then he should go look for minerals elsewhere because South Africa is tired of the blatant dïsrespect and disregard they keep getting from the Western world.

The US makes over $25-billion in profits from South Africa annually.
