Trump hosting South African president
South Africa's President, Cyril Ramaphosa, is at the White House to meet Donald Trump.
The meeting between Donald Trump and Cyril Ramaphosa in front of the world's media descended into an awkward confrontation over discredited allegations that white South Africans are facing a genocide. We bring live the press conference and speak to our correspondents in Washington and Johannesburg.
Presenter: Mark Lowen.
