#Trump #Mexico #migrants - Migrants stranded as thousands of appointments to enter US cancelled • FRANCE 24 English

21 January 2025

President Donald Trump announced severe new restrictions on immigration and asylum in the United States hours after taking office Monday, declaring that he will send troops to the US-Mexico border and attempt to end birthright citizenship.

The first effects of Trump's stance became apparent minutes after his inauguration when an app unveiled under president Joe Biden to help process asylum seekers went offline.

US media reported 30,000 people had appointments scheduled.

#UK #France #migration - ‘Everyone wants to go to England’: Syrian migrants in Calais reluctant to return • FRANCE 24

At a makeshift migrant camp in Calais, many Syria migrants say they still intent to attempt the perilous crossing to the UK rather than head home.
