Immigration


More asylum-seekers will be turned away at the border under a new Trump administration policy. Asylum claims based on fears of gang or domestic violence will immediately be rejected, according to new guidance given to officers who interview asylum-seekers at US borders and evaluate refugee applications. If an immigrant crosses the border illegally, that will also be considered in possibly rejecting an asylum claim (the policy also applies to refugee applicants abroad).

Some analysts fear that this year’s version could be a prelude for military aggression. ALEXEY DRUGINYN / RIA NOVOSTI By ANDREW HIGGINS SEPTEMBER 13, 2017 MOSCOW — The country does not exist, so it has neither an army nor any real citizens, though it has acquired a feisty following of would-be patriots online.
