American exile: The Donald Trump administration has announced that the US will end legal protection for the people of Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela. The effect of this decision will be so high that 530,000 people will have to leave the US in about a month.
US President Donald Trump has intensified action against illegal immigrants. Non -residents of these four countries came to the United States in October 2022 with financial sponsors. He was given a two -year permit to live and work in the US. Now the Homeland Security Department has announced that on April 24, such people will lose their legal status 30 days after the notice is received in the federal register.
Biden was given two -year parole.
It is noteworthy that during the tenure of former US President who was given parole for two years during Biden’s tenure, which is now effectively terminated. Citizens from all four countries were allowed to enter the United States by air with an American sponsor.
Trump’s decision
The human parole system is a long -term legal system that the Presidents use to give shelter to the people of those countries where there is war or political instability. In such a situation, such people can enter America and live temporarily. The Trump administration has decided to abolish this system, alleging widespread misuse.
The Department of Homeland Security said that those who are in the US without any legal basis, ie on parole, would have to leave the US before the parole period ends.
Many people may face exile by canceling the legal status of 500,000 immigrants by the Trump administration. However, it is not yet clear how many people entering the US under the parole program have received the option of safety or legal status.
What was Biden’s decision?
In 2022, the then President Joe Biden started the parole entry program for the people of Venezuela. It was later expanded in 2023 and included the people of Cuba, Haiti and Nicaragua. Diplomatic and political relations between the United States and these four countries have been stressful.
In addition, after assuming the post of President of the United States, Donald Trump has intensified his efforts to take action against illegal immigrants. So far, a record number of illegal immigrants have been deported. The Trump administration argued that the previous Biden administration had launched the parole program which was beyond the legal boundaries. He issued an executive order against him on 20 January.
