Less than a month after the some 240,000 Ukrainian refugees living in America were sent a threatening email about separation, they were told it was false.<\/p>\n

In March, the Trump administration sent an email to many Ukrainian refugees who fled the country after Vladimir Putin\u2019s troops invaded in 2022.<\/p>\n

It read: \u2018If you do not depart the United States<\/a> immediately you will be subject to potential law enforcement actions that will result in your removal from the United States.<\/p>\n

\u2018Again, DHS (Department of Homeland Security) is terminating your parole. Do not attempt to remain in the United States.\u2019<\/p>\n

But now thousands have been sent a follow-up email after the initial panic, telling them the order was an \u2018error\u2019, adding: \u2018the terms of your parole as originally issued remain unchanged at this time.\u2019<\/p>\n

One Ukrainian woman who was sent the email told Reuters she was crying and panicking after the first email.<\/p>\n

The Trump administration\u2019s email was a sharp turn from former President Joe Biden\u2019s \u2018Unite For Ukraine\u2019 humanitarian program which complemented the existing legal pathways for Ukrainians to pursue immigrant visas and refugee processing.<\/p>\n

Biden said in 2022 that the program would provide an \u2018expedient channel for secure, legal migration from Europe to the United States for Ukrainians\u2019 who have a sponsor like family members or a nonprofit organization.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Shortly after entering the Oval Office again, Trump began his crackdown on immigration<\/a>, but has been sharply criticised for his targeting of some US citizens as well.<\/p>\n

An executive order, posted to the White House website, wrote of Trump\u2019s plan to prevent undocumented immigrants from \u2018invading\u2019 communities and costing state and local government.<\/p>\n

And a policy which previously restricted officer\u2019s abilities to arrest undocumented immigrants at \u2018sensitive\u2019 locations, such as schools, churches and hospitals, has been rolled back.<\/p>\n

The US Department of Homeland Security said: \u2018Criminals will no longer be able to hide in America\u2019s schools and churches to avoid arrest.<\/p>\n

\u2018The Trump Administration will not tie the hands of our brave law enforcement, and instead trusts them to use common sense.\u2019<\/p>\n
