Trump canceled the entry into the US of refugees for whom a residence permit was previously approved

The Trump administration canceled the entry of refugees who had already received permission to enter the United States from the Biden administration. Among those affected are more than 1,600 Afghans who were cleared after the withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan in 2021.

The Trump administration has revoked entry into the United States for refugees who had previously received it and had a deadline next week. Thus, about 10,000 refugees in different parts of the world found themselves in a difficult situation. Among them are more than 1,600 Afghans who helped the American military, as well as relatives of active-duty US military personnel.

Thousands of refugees who fled war and persecution and went through a years-long vetting process to start a new life in America are now stuck in various places around the world.

On Monday, Trump signed an executive order in which he recognized the program for accepting refugees in the United States as “harmful to the interests” of the country and ordered it to be suspended from January 27. However, the deadlines appear to have been moved, although it is unclear what caused the change.
