U.S. Halts Ukrainian Refugee Program After Trump’s Immigration Order

Ukraine United States

#refugee

The U.S. has suspended the "Uniting for Ukraine" program following Trump’s Jan. 20 executive order on border security. USCIS stopped accepting new applications, pending a review.

The program allowed Ukrainians to stay for two years with a U.S. sponsor. Over 200,000 Ukrainians had been accepted. Trump’s order also paused similar programs for migrants from Cuba, Haiti, and Venezuela.

Officials claim these programs were never lawful. The U.S. State Department also froze most foreign aid to Ukraine. Ukrainian NGOs, dependent on U.S. funds, now face uncertainty. The move affects refugees fleeing war and instability worldwide.

Philippine President Plans to Meet Trump on Immigration, Criticizes China

Philippines

#immigration

Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. plans to meet U.S. President Donald Trump to discuss immigration policies affecting Filipinos. He aims to influence policies impacting over 300,000 undocumented Filipinos in the U.S.

Marcos also criticized China’s aggressive actions in the South China Sea. He stated he would return the U.S. Typhon missile system if China stopped its territorial claims and harassment of Filipino fishermen. China opposes the missile deployment.

Tensions remain high between China and the Philippines, with Washington backing Manila. The 2016 Hague ruling rejected China’s claims, but Beijing refuses to recognize it.

Trump to Revoke Student Visas of Pro-Palestinian Protesters

United States

#studentvisa

#deport

Trump signed an executive order to deport non-citizen students involved in pro-Palestinian protests. He vowed to cancel student visas of those he calls "Hamas sympathizers." Legal experts say this violates free speech rights.

The First Amendment protects all individuals in the U.S., including foreign students. Trump also plans stricter immigration policies, including detaining undocumented immigrants at Guantanamo Bay. His administration enacted the Laken Riley Act, expelling many undocumented individuals.

He also seeks to abolish birthright citizenship. Human rights groups strongly oppose these measures, calling them unconstitutional and inhumane. These policies have sparked major controversy across the country.

Canada has launched the Francophone Community Immigration Pilot (FCIP). This program allows French-speaking newcomers with job offers in selected communities to gain permanent residence. It targets areas outside Quebec that need skilled workers.

Selected communities include Sudbury, Timmins, Kelowna, and others. Candidates must meet eligibility criteria, including French proficiency (NCLC 5), work experience, and financial stability. Employers can apply to become designated under FCIP.

Successful applicants may also qualify for a two-year work permit. The initiative is part of Canada’s strategy to support Francophone immigration. In the coming weeks, more details on employers and priority occupations will be released.
