US Plans to Strip Ukrainians of Legal Status

The administration of President Donald Trump is set to revoke the temporary legal status of approximately 240,000 Ukrainians who fled the conflict with Russia. According to Reuters, this move, which was anticipated as early as April, represents a shocking turnaround in the welcoming policy towards Ukrainians under President Joe Biden's administration.

The revocation of protections for Ukrainians began before Trump publicly clashed with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky last week.
