UN agencies have asked the US to continue to allow asylum seekers access to the country and be given due process following US President Donald Trump’s announcement to “permanently pause” migration from all “third world countries”.

When asked about the comments made by former President Trump, UN human rights office spokesperson Jeremy Laurence emphasized the necessity of safeguarding individuals under international law, stressing the importance of due process during a press briefing in Geneva.

UN refugee agency spokesperson Eujin Byun echoed those remarks.
“When people who need protection arrive in their territory, they have to have a due process of asylum. And then they have to have access to territory,” she said, adding that the overwhelming majority of refugees are law-abiding members of the host community.

He urged nations currently hosting refugees and asylum seekers to uphold these protections, reinforcing the global commitment to human rights.

Reaction to the shooting of National Guard members in Washington DC

In Washington, DC, a tragic incident occurred on November 28, involving National Guard members Sarah Beckstrom and Andrew Wolfe. Beckstrom succumbed to her injuries, while Wolfe remains hospitalized, highlighting a somber moment for the community.

Trump did not identify any countries in the “permanent ban” by name or explain what he meant by third-world countries or “permanently pause”.

Trump said he would end all federal benefits and subsidies for “noncitizens”, adding he would “denaturalise migrants who undermine domestic tranquillity” and deport any foreign national deemed a public charge, security risk, or “non-compatible with Western civilisation”.
He said the plan would include cases approved under former president Joe Biden’s administration.
The US Citizenship and Immigration Services has stopped processing all immigration requests relating to Afghan nationals indefinitely.
