(The Guardian) US slashes number of refugees and give priority to white South Africans
The Trump administration announced plans to restrict the number of refugees it admits into the United States next year to the level of just 7,500 – and those spots will mostly be filled by white South Africans. The low number represents a dramatic drop after the US previously allowed in hundreds of thousands of people fleeing war and persecution from around the world.
The administration published the news Thursday in a notice on the Federal Registry. No reason was given for the drop in numbers, which are a dramatic decrease from last year’s ceiling set under the Biden administration of 125,000.
The Associated Press previously reported that the administration was considering admitting as few as 7,500 refugees and mostly white South Africans.
