Trump limits refugee admissions to 7,500 and gives priority to white South Africans | BBC News



The Donald Trump administration will limit the number of refugees admitted to the US to 7,500, and give priority to white South Africans.

The move, announced in a notice published on Thursday, will apply for the next fiscal year and marks a dramatic cut from the previous limit of 125,000 set by former President Joe Biden.

No reason was given for the cut, but the notice said it was “justified by humanitarian concerns or is otherwise in the national interest”.

In January 2025, Trump signed an executive order suspending the US Refugee Admissions Programme, or USRAP, which he said would allow US authorities to prioritise national security and public safety.

  1. I think everyone will be watching BBC closely now after they was found out that they doctored Trumps speech a while back Its not the first time though They did it with they queen tooPack up now BBC you call yourself honest news You expect that on tiktok or youtube editing clips to make someone look bad but not mainstream media

  2. It is ABSOLUTELY INSANE what’s happening in 🇺🇸 .. The country we LOVE and Respect! 🫡 🇺🇸
    We CANT WAIT for a new President and to be a DEMOCRAT !! Americans are fed up of what we’ve been through in these last months .

  3. OH, let's let 7,500 of these people into our country!!
    South Afrikaner emboldening similar expressions of anti-democratic, racist, and homophobic sentiments, rhetoric that aligns with white supremacist or "alt-right" fascist ideologies.
    Big on their beliefs is racial segregation! romantic affinity with its intransigent white settler rights and their disparaging view of "the African." I would think that these folks would settle into Republicans states and give those people run for their money and influence.

  4. In the meantime, in South Africa, Trump's white refugee programme is a good thing that will hopefully mean Africans will get their land back from settler colonialists. The whole of Africa should be cheering this "non White genocide programme" on to right the historical injustices. There was no need for them to lie about a "white genocide" genocide is what is happening in Gaza! South Africa has a serious problem with crime, most of which affect black people more than whites. But if they want to call it a genocide that has always been their privilege to call whatever is happening as they wish, twist things around to claim they are now being treated worse than they treated Africans for what 300 years plus.. that is supremacists' power and privilege. We Africans in Southern Africa will for sure not miss them and their wickedness we suffered so long and still suffering. They are holding onto ill, gotten 80% of Africans land, 70% plus of our economy.. was that buy just means or theft?.. we hope President Trump Trump keeps the program open, Africa and Africans need our continent back from these settlers.

  5. These are hardcore Nazi racists, some of the killings of white farmers are by the workers tgey abuse..Africans will no longer take their racsim and abuse.. Apartheid days are over.. the sooner tgey go to America the better..

    A South African farmer and two of his employees have been accused of killing two black women and feeding their bodies to pigs.

    Three men are facing murder charges after Maria Makgato, 45, and Lucia Ndlovu, 34, were killed while allegedly looking for food on a farm neart Polokwane in South Africa's northern Limpopo province last year.

    Their bodies were then alleged to have been given to pigs in an apparent attempt to dispose of the evidence.

    The case has sparked outrage across South Africa, exacerbating racial tensions in the country

  6. Im not surprised my question is why dont they migrate to other neighboring countries why does the US always has to take people from other side of globe, n yes I think as usual the US government favors white Eastern Europeans or white countries than others, I noticed many people from Czech republic Yoguslavia n Eastern Europe get in so easy n quick compare to those from people of color.

  7. In South Africa the current government protects the right of people to celebrate the shooting and killing of white farmers. They black people say it is part of their culture and history. At least president Trump thinks that is insane.
