Explanation:

After apartheid ended, South Africa's government took steps to address past injustices. Option C is correct as financial reparations were part of this. Option A is incorrect as economic policies didn't create equal wealth distribution (still significant disparities). Option B is wrong as there were no such laws against white South Africans running for office. Option D is incorrect as South Africa didn't cut off trade with all countries that supported apartheid.

Answer:

C. It approved some financial reparations for the victims of apartheid.
