Thousands of South African farming families have arrived in Russia after fleeing their farms for fear of death as the government takes back land from White citizens.

A delegation of 30 families that have fled South Africa has arrived in Russia’s farm belt Stavropol Region, according to a report by Rossiya 1 TV. The group says it has been forced to leave their farms and land behind after facing violent attacks and death threats at home.

South Africa's new President Cyril Ramaphosa has vowed to take back land from the countries White minority and give it to Black citizens. With descendants of the White farmers having occupied the land for up to 400 years, the families have been left with no other option but to seek refuge in Russia where the government is welcoming them in.

Up to 15,000 Boers, descendants of Dutch settlers in South Africa, are planning to move to Russia amid rising violence stemming from government plans to expropriate their land, according to the delegation. “It’s a matter of life and death – there are attacks on us. It’s got to the point where the politicians are stirring up a wave of violence,” Adi Slebus told the media. “The climate here [Stavropol Region] is temperate, and this land is created by God for farming.



The South African government, led by Cyril Ramaphosa, has pledged to "return" the lands owned by White farmers since the 1600s to blacks. It is planning to put an end to what it calls the legacy of apartheid, where most of South Africa’s land is still in the hands of its minority white population.

Rights groups say the initiative incites violence. There were 74 farm murders and 638 attacks, primarily against white farmers, in 2016-17 in South Africa, according to data by minority rights group AfriForum. The farmers are prepared to make a contribution to Russia’s booming agricultural sector, according to Rossiya 1.

Each family is ready to bring up to $100,000 for leasing the land. Russia has 43 million hectares of unused farmland and has recently begun giving out free land to Russian citizens to cultivate farming. The land giveaway program, which began in 2014, has been a huge success.Russia, it's economy, and it's people will benefit from the contributions made by these hard working men, and women. Whilst Europe, along with countries like Australia have rejected their appeals because the're white. Shame on the Australian, British, and US governments: Shame on them for their racism!
