Trump Administration Limits Refugee Admissions, Prioritizing White South Africans

The Trump administration has announced a significant reduction in the number of refugees allowed into the United States, setting the cap at 7,500 for the upcoming fiscal year. This policy change notably prioritizes white South Africans, particularly Afrikaners, in the admissions process. Critics have condemned this decision as racially discriminatory, arguing that it echoes past immigration mistakes. This marks the lowest refugee admission ceiling on record and has sparked widespread debate over the implications for U.S. immigration policies.
