The White House announced that no decision has yet been made on the possible revocation of the temporary legal status of 240,000 Ukrainian refugees who fled to the United States after Russia's invasion.
"The truth: no decision has been made at this time," White House spokeswoman Caroline Levitt wrote in a post on the X platform, following Reuters' revealing report on the matter.
Earlier, the agency reported that the Trump administration plans to revoke the temporary protection status for about 240,000 Ukrainian refugees who fled to the United States.
The move, which threatens to lead to expedited deportation, is expected in April , according to a US government official and three sources familiar with the matter cited by Reuters. As the Reuters report states, the regime change had begun to be planned long before the incident between Trump and Zelensky in the Oval Office.
The move is part of a broader effort by the Trump administration to revoke the existing legal status of more than 1.8 million immigrants who were allowed to enter the United States under temporary programs under the Biden administration.
It is noted that on January 20, Donald Trump signed an executive order calling on the Department of Homeland Security to end all programs related to immigrants .
In addition to the 240,000 Ukrainians who fled to the US after the Russian invasion, as well as 530,000 Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans and Venezuelans , these programs concern more than 70,000 Afghans who fled their country after the Taliban took over.

Yeah, sure, send the Afghans back too. You sold them out to the Taliban in Qatar anyway, no?
Spaghetti at the wall.
