According to Byanyima, the funding accounted for around 17% of the country\u2019s HIV response.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She warned that removing this support would hit some of the most vulnerable communities and risk reversing gains made in tackling the virus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cTaking it away is taking life-saving support from the most vulnerable people,\u201d she said, adding that she wanted the US to reconsider its position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">US officials said the funding cut was partly linked to South Africa\u2019s alleged failure to protect the white Afrikaner minority, an accusation strongly rejected by Pretoria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">South Africa\u2019s health ministry said it had not been formally informed of the decision, but added that the government had \u201clong been working on a self-reliance plan\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The move comes amid worsening relations between Washington and Pretoria since President Donald Trump returned to office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump previously issued an executive order accusing South Africa of pursuing policies that dismantle equal opportunities and fuel violence against \u201cracially disfavoured landowners\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The South African government disputes the claim, arguing that policies such as Black Economic Empowerment are necessary to address economic inequality rooted in the apartheid era.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump has also repeated the widely discredited claim that a \u201cwhite genocide\u201d is taking place in South Africa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pretoria has consistently rejected the allegation, insisting that crime affects all communities and that the claim is being used to distort South Africa\u2019s political and social realities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Byanyima said cuts to international HIV assistance were not limited to one country, but described the US withdrawal as especially damaging because America has historically been the largest contributor to global HIV programmes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI call on member states to protect the rights of people living with HIV,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The US decision to cut all HIV and AIDS funding to South Africa could cost lives, the head of the UN\u2019s HIV agency has warned.
