Trump weighs revoking legal status of Ukrainians as US steps up deportations

Media: Reuters
Summary: On March 6, 2023, U.S. President Donald Trump announced that he would soon decide whether to revoke the temporary legal status for around 240,000 Ukrainians who fled the conflict with Russia. This move could potentially lead to fast-track deportations. The decision would reverse the protections Ukrainians received under President Joe Biden's administration.

The planned rollback is part of a broader effort to strip legal status from over 1.8 million migrants allowed into the U.S. under temporary humanitarian parole programs launched by Biden. The revocation could occur as early as April. Trump has indicated that some people believe this is appropriate, while others disagree. The White House and DHS have not made any official announcements yet. Additionally, the Trump administration plans to revoke parole for around 530,000 Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans.
